I thought this sounded familiar, and I finally got around to looking it
up. Check out Q120968 and the online documentation for pragma warning:
> For warning numbers greater than 4699, those associated with code generation, the warning pragma has effect only when placed outside function definitions. The pragma is ignored if it specifies a number greater than 4699 and is used inside a function.
This talks about function scope rather than class scope, but I bet you
could put them anywhere at file scope, not just at beginning and end.
