Do you mean VC_EXTRALEAN? Or is WIN32_EXTRA_LEAN also a thing?

First time I hear of VC_EXTRALEAN, always used WIN32_EXTRA_LEAN.

The bad news is that WIN32_EXTRA_LEAN has no effect, you have to define VC_EXTRALEAN if you want to exclude extra stuff from the MFC and VC headers.

The good news is also that it has no effect. :)

You can verify this for yourself by grepping the Visual Studio headers for VC_EXTRALEAN and WIN32_EXTRA_LEAN.

But it did in 2005?

> VC_EXTRALEAN defines WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN and a number of NOservice definitions, such as NOCOMM and NOSOUND.
