How can I make Visual Studio's build be very verbose?

build-process, c++, visual-studio

Solution

Open the project properties dialog, then choose

Configuration Properties → C/C++ → General

Change the setting for `Suppress Startup Banner` to `No`

The `cl` command line(s) will be shown in the output window.

Problem

I need to get a hold of every flag, every switch used in the build process by the Visual Studio binaries. I tried to obtain a verbose output by using `vcbuild`, but I wasn't able. What do I have to do to see everything performed by Visual Studio for me? It's not necessary to obtain the output in the build window. Anywhere would be fine.
