| /ALIGNA[DDR]:factor | /ALIGNADDR:0x00010000 |
Use /ALIGNADDR to set the address alignment for segments.
The alignment factor determines the memory addresses for segments in the executable or dynamic link library file. Each segment is assigned to the next unused multiple (in bytes) of the alignment factor.
The
alignment factor must be a power of 2, from 512 to 256M. The
default factor is 64K.
Segments
are divided into pages, which are also aligned by the alignment
factor. The alignment factor must be a power of 2, from 4K to
64K. 64K is the default, and is the only useful value, unless you
are building the operating system. The loader will not accept any
other value.
