What steps will reproduce the problem?

2. In 'Command Line' section write -save-temps into the 'Additional Options' 
field
3. Try to compile the file.

It should compile.

C:\Program Files 
(x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft.Cpp\v4.0\Platforms\Android\Microsoft.Cpp.Android.Targets
(52,5): error MSB6006: "arm-linux-androideabi-g++.exe" exited with code 1.

Build FAILED.

I tried this and got the same error. It looks like it's on the command line 
fine (turn on 'echo command line' to confirm that yourself).

All I can ascertain is that the gcc Google are shipping doesn't support that 
flag. I've used many other flags in the additional options field without issue.

So I'll close this, since it's not an issue with vs-android. Reply though if 
you still think it's valid. I've never used that particular switch before, so 
possibly it does something out of the ordinary.

Well, you're right. Sorry to bother you. It worked earlier in version 0.92, but 
I forgot that I had updated to Android NDK R7 as well, not only to the latest 
vs-android. It seems this switch is not supported in this version of Android 
NDK.

No worries, man! It's a shame they don't document changes to the gcc they're 
using, in their NDK 'release notes'. Looks like there's nothing about it in 
there.
