#define for Debug vs Release?

dougpaulsen — Mon, 30 Aug 2021 20:07:56 GMT

Would MCUXpresso have a #define that it sets depending on whether a build is a debug or a release version?

I'd need to have slightly different build versions for debugging on EVK boards versus the true Release version for target hardware. I keep forgetting! It seems not unreasonable that some #define might already exist that would allow conditional compilation to differentiate between debug and release - without relying on fallible mortals.... Can try to set something up myself, but it wouldn't surprise me that something already exists.

Thanks for any pointers!

Never mind. I found it! It's DEBUG and NDEBUG. See project->properties->C/C++ General->Paths and Symbols.

NDEBUG /DEBUG also in MCU C compiler preprocessor.
