So, if you use ASSERT macros a lot, you typically want to point to the offending line of code, and use __LINE__ and __BASE_FILE__ macros for that.
Now, where it gets tricky: VisualC does not have __BASE_FILE__ so what I did was use __FILE__ instead. But that has the nasty side effect of putting your home directory in your build, like so: C:\Users\bram\src\.. which is bad practice.
Stackoverflow.com to the rescue. I found this neat solution for it.
UPDATE
Gregory warned about this affecting parallel builds. Personally, I do see all cores used for my single project solution, but your mileage may vary. An alternate approach would be to ditch VisualC compiler, and use clang instead.
