Search for __STDC__:
Predefined Macros
The compiler recognizes six predefined ANSI C macros (see Table 1.1), and
the Microsoft C++ implementation provides several more (see Table 1.2). 

__STDC__ Indicates full conformance with the ANSI C standard. Defined as the
integer constant 1 only if the /Za compiler option is given and you are not
compiling C++ code; otherwise is undefined. 

-----
Search for /Za:
/Za, /Ze   (Disable Language Extensions)

The Microsoft C compiler supports the ANSI C standard. In addition, it
offers a number of features beyond those specified in the ANSI C standard.
These features are available when the /Ze option, the default, is specified
and are not available when the /Za option is specified. See Microsoft
Extensions to C for more information.

Command Line Project Settings Description 
/Za Disable Language Extensions (check box selected) ANSI C compatibility.
Language constructs not compatible with ANSI C are flagged as errors.
