unrecognized source file type ‘WIN32’

Ever had these errors with Microsoft Visual C++?

cl : Command line warning D9024 :
unrecognized source file type 'WIN32', object file assumed
cl : Command line warning D9027 :
source file 'WIN32' ignored

Check your ”Additional Include Directories”, there is a missing macro there, which will result in a command line like this one:

/I "" /D "WIN32"

Then /D will be taken as an include path, and “WIN32” as a file to be compiled…

Obvious in retrospect, but it took me some time to get there.
