/MACHINE (Specify Target Platform)

 

The latest version of this topic can be found at -MACHINE (Specify Target Platform).

MACHINE:{ARM|EBC|X64|X86}

  
## Remarks  
 The /MACHINE option specifies the target platform for the program.  
  
 Usually, you don't have to specify the /MACHINE option. LINK infers the machine type from the .obj files. However, in some circumstances, LINK cannot determine the machine type and issues a [linker tools error LNK1113](../Topic/Linker%20Tools%20Error%20LNK1113.md). If such an error occurs, specify /MACHINE.
