Can I set LARGEADDRESSAWARE from within Visual Studio?

by

Building on @RouMao’s answer, you may get an error message saying that editbin cannot be found. Ensure that the environment in the post-build event command line is setup properly by specifying as follows:

call "$(VS100COMNTOOLS)..\tools\vsvars32.bat"
editbin /largeaddressaware $(TargetPath)

Another thing to understand is that your LARGEADDRESSAWARE enabled application will not run in debugging mode when (under the Debug tab in your project properties) the Enable the Visual Studio hosting process check-box is checked (which it is by default), because the vshost.exe is not properly flagged.

Uncheck that box to debug your application using LARGEADDRESSAWARE.
