c++ - Layout of compiled objects

Question

Is there a way—much like viewing the result of preprocessing with gcc -E—to see what my objects look like once compiled into object files?

I am talking about GCC, but a solution including MSVC would be fine.

Answer 1

For Visual C++:

I finally managed to dig up the (well-hidden!) undocumented compiler flags that MSVC++ supports using information from here and here. Here they are:

/d1reportSingleClassLayoutXXX
/d1reportAllClassLayout

(replace XXX with the class name)
