Debug mode dll's vs release mode dll's?

I've been developing lately with the Microsoft Application Data Blocks.
When you use the default project after you install, it compiles debug
and release mode dll's for you. How can I set up my project so that
when I set my solution to Debug configuration I am using the debug
dll's, and in Release configuration that I'm using the Release dlls?

In C++ I used to do this by using a letter d as a suffix on the end of
the DLL name for the debug mode compiled DLLs. Then when I setup the
project file it would link to the correct dll by name.

Is there an equivalent in Dev Studio 2003?

Thank you!

David

Hi Folks, We've been using Python embedded in an application for a while now, where the Python dll is PythonNN.dll, NN being the version number, such as Python24.dll. Recently it was pointed out to me that Python can run in a debug or release configuration and that you can specify this on the command line using -O and -OO.

Problem: In 'solution A', 'project 1' references 'project 2'. As such, when 'solution A' is built (debug mode), project '1' creates a dll in /debug, and project '2' referneces that dll. All is good. When 'solution A' is built in release mode however, 'project 1' is recompiled and the new dll is put into '/release', but 'project 2' still references the dll from project '1's /debug folder, and as such is compiled using the older /debug version of...

Hi I built an exe in console debug mode & Release mode . The console debug mode -exe works fine ...but the release mode EXE starts well but fails mid way . The exe is being started as a service.

I reference a .NET DLL to import some of my custom types. I can build that DLL in debug or release mode, but I usually keep the debug one built so I can debug it. When I want to link to the release version of the DLL, I find that I have to remove the reference from the project and point VS. NET to the release version of the DLL. Is there some way to do this automatically, like it usually done in the past, so that the release/debug switch...

Hi I'm about to upload my site and I have switched to release version. Is that enough or do I still need to disable <compilation defaultLanguage="vb" debug="true" /> the debug="true" in the .pdb file? Is the .pdb necessary for the release version? Thanks a bunch. Dara

Hello, After getting some posts on forums.microsoft.com but no solution I was asked to post over here. Hopefully someone here can help with my problem. I have a Windows Forms application written in C# via VS 2003. It does 100% of what it should while in Debug mode (running in the debugger as well as running the .exe from File Explorer.) However, there is one thing it does not do when compiled in Release mode (running in the debugger...

Hello, Is there a way to get Visual Studio 2003 look to one directory for debug version dlls when set to DEBUG and then to another directory where I store the release version of a dll when set to RELEASE? My current project uses about 8 dlls I've written in the past, but I don't want to keep re-compiling them for debug/release depending on whether I'm compiling the current project for debug/release.

I am using Debug.WriteLine and Trace.WriteLine to output messages from a dll. This dll is used in an application. No matter whether i run the program in release mode or debug mode and whether i define/undefine DEBUG and TRACE compiler definitions, I still get the messages in the Output window. What might be the problem? Thanks Bob

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
