Release and debug mode
-
Hi, Whats the difference between release and debug mode. Debug mode is enough for debugging and to build the project.THen why release mode is there? I never use tht mode?Any tutorial about that?
You can't debug in the release mode. Debug mode: This is helpful when you want to know where is a fault in your code that is causing a crash or malfunction. The assert macros work in the debug mode not in the release mode. Somethings seem HARD to do, until we know how to do them. ;-) _AnShUmAn_

Release mode removes the dependencies and shrinks the size of the application. Debug mode is for tracing the application. so prefer the release builds only while deploying the application. Knock out 't' from can't, You can if you think you can :cool:

Another point is that it's illegal to sell applications that are in debug mode because they uses debug dll's also. These dll's are from microsoft and you are not allowed to distribute the debug version.

I find this question may be for the 100th time :-D. Debug as it's name suggests , comes with all macros that helps you to debug your application, (ie ASSERT, TRACE ). So with all these, your .exe's size would be naturally bigger. And when you check for dependencies, you'll see it's refering to the dlls that ends with "d".. like MFC42D.dll, MSVCRTD.dll ect. But when you make your application in Release mode, it is fully optimized. Compare the size of both the .exes you'll know.

u can debug in release mode!... just a matter of changing the settings....just check teh Generate debug info flag!....

one more difference that don't seem to be told here yet : compile both debug and release mode and compare the sizes of the new .exe... seeing a difference ? (the debug version should be much bigger because it contains debug infos, the comments of your code have not been erased neither)...

this is crap. it's just as if you
delete thisin a contructor, and initialize your object state in the destructor. it's not what release mode is made for, so don't use it for debug !!!
