Debug & Release version

I wonder are there other differences between DEBUG and RELEASE version of developed application besides the point that the former has embedded debug information ?


Thanks

Hi Clarence,


yes, there are more differences. The debug version uses a special heap managment to detect memory leaks.

Martin,


I was thinking of giving my users the DEBUG version of my application. Are there other things that I need to think about in doing so ?

Thanks for answering.

Hi Clarence,


if you users aren't your beta testers I don't recommend in giving away a debug version. A debug version is normally a lot bigger and runs slower.


BTW, I forgot the stack probes. The stack is tested for integrity on every function call. And the code is not optimized.

Thanks Martin !
