DEBUG Preprocessor Symbol
Enable the DEBUG preprocessor symbol if you want to add
code to your application to help you debug while testing the application.
This is a selection on the General tab of the Project painter. Although you do not typically enable the DEBUG symbol in a release
build, if a problem is reported in a production application, you
can redeploy the release build with the DEBUG symbol enabled to
help determine the nature or location of the problem.
a code block with the following format is parsed by the pb2cs code
emitter:
|
1 2 3 4 5 |
#if defined DEBUG then /*debugging code*/ #else /* other action*/ #end if |
the DEBUG block only for lines of code that are not in an ELSE clause
that removes the DEBUG condition. If you attempt to add a breakpoint
in the ELSE clause, the debugger automatically switches the breakpoint
to the last line of the clause defining the DEBUG condition.
In the previous pseudocode example, if you add a breakpoint
to the comment line �/* other
action*/�, the breakpoint
automatically switches to the �/*debugging
code*/� comment line.
This figure shows
the context menu item that you can use to paste the #If
Defined DEBUG Then template statement in the Script view:
