How to include an header automatically in all cpp files in visual studio?

Question

I would like to include an header in all cpp files of my project without to change all cpp files manually in visual studio. Does someone can help me ?

I need this feature cuz I will use Visual Leaks Detector and I need to include "vld.h" in all cpp files of a huge project.

I know that I can do that with gcc/make (Is there any way to include a header file in all C or CPP file automatically?)

Do you have precompiled headers enabled (it is the default)? Then just include it in `"stdafx.h"`? — Some programmer dude, Jan 23 '17 at 09:55
You could have a programmer write a program which appends a line of text at the beginning of a text file. That should be trivial enough even for inexperienced programmers. — Lundin, Jan 23 '17 at 10:00
AFAIK you need to include "vld.h" only in one single .cpp file. — Jabberwocky, Jan 23 '17 at 10:33

Configuration properties / C/C++ / Advanced / Forced Include
