/syntax_check

midl /syntax_check
midl /Zs

Examples

midl /Zs filename.idl 

midl /syntax_check filename.idl 

Remarks

The /syntax_check switch indicates that the compiler checks only syntax and does not generate output files. This switch overrides all other switches that specify information about output files.

You can also specify syntax-checking mode with the MIDL compiler option /Zs.
