This option displays COFF line numbers. Line numbers exist in an object file if it was compiled with Program Database (/Zi), C7 Compatible (/Z7), or Line Numbers Only (/Zd). An executable file or DLL contains COFF line numbers if it was linked with Generate Debug Info (/DEBUG) and COFF Format (/DEBUGTYPE:COFF).
