How to increase error limit in Visual Studio?

Question

When building an application in Visual Studio. It shows the following error when exceeding the error count

    fatal error C1003: error count exceeds 100; sto         


        

Answer 1

This limitation is hardcoded. Here is the post from the MSFT employee in the microsoft.public.vsnet.general group dated 2006 (look for 'Fatal Error C1003'):

Hi,

Unfortunately this 100 limitation is hard coded and cannot be changed. It's just inpractical to keep all errors information around since one error may cause other several errors.
