W8074: Structure passed by value (C++)

(Command-line option to display warning: -wstv) 

This warning is generated any time a structure is passed by value as an argument. 

It is a frequent programming mistake to leave an address-of operator (&) off a structure when passing it as an argument. 

Because structures can be passed by value, this omission is acceptable. 

This warning provides a way for the compiler to warn you of this mistake.
