Linking to a Large address aware DLL

问题:

Suppose I have a DLL which is built with LARGEADDRESSAWARE linker flag set. Now I have an application dynamically linking to this DLL. Does this make my application LARGEADDRESSAWARE?

If not then, does it make sense to have this flag set for any DLL?

回答1:

Discussion here seems to indicate /LARGEADDRESSAWARE has no efefct on DLLs and depends totally on the hosting executable.

回答2:

I believe that the flag must be set on the main executable. So no, it does not make sense to set it on a DLL. (A possible exception might be when the DLL is run using runDll?)
