Debug options in Visual C++

Is there any way to turn off warnings for visual studio headers while still keeping a high warning level on your project code? I looked briefly in the forums but couldn't find anything that specifically applies.

Use the #pragma warning directives.

You can also modify the warning level for particular source files, if there is one that causes you consternation. I often do this when dealing with 3rd party files that I have no control over.

I use warning level 4, and don't see warnings out of the 'visual studio headers'. What kind of warnings are you seeing, and which compiler (VC6, VS.NET 2002, VS.NET 2003) are you using?

Sorry, I guess I wasn't specific enough. VC6 compiler. The warnings are usually like this; c:\program files\microsoft visual studio\vc98\include\xmemory(39) : warning C4100: '_P' : unreferenced formal parameter c:\program files\microsoft visual studio\vc98\include\xmemory(41) : warning C4100: '_P' : unreferenced formal parameter c:\program files\microsoft visual studio\vc98\include\vector(249) : warning C4663: C++ language change: to explicitly specialize class template 'vector' use the following syntax: template<> class vector > ... I'm also getting alot of signed/unsigned mismatches and casting warnings. It's ok though, I just modified the offending files with pragma directive and everything seems to be working fine. Thanks!
