在this问题jalf的一个回答中谈到了有用的定义NOMINMAX，这可以防止不必要的定义最小/最大宏。是否有其他有用的定义可以帮助控制windows.h（或其他Windows标头，例如Microsoft C运行时标头或STL实现）行为？

最常用的可能是WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN - 它会禁用很少使用的API部分。您可以在MSDN的Using the Windows Headers上找到更多信息。
我记得有关MSDN列出这些定义的错误，所以这里是来自windows.h的列表：

MFC项目可以使用VC_EXTRALEAN，因为MFC已经定义了WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN。我还建议enabling STRICT。
