-------------------------------------------

VS 2003 is fifteen years old. Do we need to address this issue? Is there any objection if we close this issue as 'WONTFIX'?

> Hi,
> This is related to AVRO-1370. Currently C++ code generation produces single file and with lot of inline functions.  If the schema file is huge, it's generating huge header file. When this header file  is used to to build the project, we are getting "object file format limit exceeded : more than 65,279 sections". To fix this problem we had to use /bigobj flag to the project  and this fixed the problem.
> Unfortunately /bigobj is only supported from VS 2005. Prior versions of VS 2005 don't have this flag. 
> Is it possible to split the generated file into multiple parts by class name and it's avro traits code.
