          How can it be done toxccct ? ie how can I configure release mode to gave debug infos. ? because even though i understand debug mode is to be prefered in most cases to the realse mode, I am faced with scenario where release mode is a must, and hence losing debugging at the same time.

            you go to your compiler options, and chanck the release mode configuration. I can't say much now, because I don't know which compiler you're using, and I have no visual Studio with me at the moment...

              Which VS version are you using. In 6.0 Go to project settings and there is option to generate debug info which is by default unchecked for Release build.

                That's not the case. Debug mode is not prefered over release mode: they are used in different scenarios. You use the debug mode while developping and debugging your product. Once it is (more or less) stable and you want to distribute it, you have to distribute the release version of it. You are not allowed to distribute a debug version of your program (because it is using debug dll's from microsoft which you can't distribute).

                    Possibly because I posted a question. You aren't aware of, are you? :-D BTW you forgot the final question mark in your one.

                      ya but you are asking question to the person who is asking a question,so your question is not the main question. Because of that some confusion arises.
