Hi!
Is it possible to check the active solution configuration (debug, release or some user defined) at compile time using for example preprocessor directives?
Best regards,

While it is not exactly what you asked, do you know that an easy thing to do
is to check for the presence of debug options is to use something like
#ifdef DEBUG
// ...
#endif
You might want to look at the "Command Line" options under the C++ section
of your project's properties. The options that start with /D are the ones
which set preprocessor symbols.
I would guess that the automation/macro support in the compiler would allow
you to get the information you seek but to be honest that's just a guess as
I have never set out to look for it.

Well, I've already thought of this solution. I've seen something like
IF CONFIG = "Debug"
END IF
posted in other newsgroups but it seems like it only works with VB. I guess I'll have to use the proposed solution.

It's as good a solution as any. Stick a Preprocessor Define (in the Project
configs) for each of your configs. I think DEBUG is automaticaly defined for
Debug builds, and it's easy to add some more for other configurations.

HI,
I am developing a application in vb.net. I split down my functionality
into several separate DLL's. The solution is becoming very large, nearly 100
projects, each project a dll's. There is one entry exe.
It is very slow to load and compile now. All my references are project
references, is there a standard way to split the solution. In the past I
have had versioning problems if a compile groups of projects individually.

Hi all,
I am writing a template matrix class in which the template parameters are
the number of rows and number of columns. There are a number of reasons
why this is an appropriate tradeoff for my particular application. One of the
advantages is that the _compiler_ can force inner matrix dimensions used in
multiplication to agree. A _complie-time_ error will be triggered if you
write A * B and the number of coluns in A does not equal the...

I'm posting my problem experience and solution I found here for other
ASP.NET developers.
I have a web application that uses Forms Authentication with Active
Directory to control access. In this web application, I have search
page that utilizes the Windows Indexing Service (MSIDXS provider).
For reasons I'm not aware of at this time, setting <identity
impersonation="true" /> in the web.config causes an error whenever you
try to search.

I would like to have some code compile if my Active Configuration is set to
debug and not compile if it is set to Release.
I don't want to have to remember to define a constant. I just want to
change configurations and all debug code not execute.
How is this possible.
Thanks in advance,

Hi,
You all may be knowing that Connection.isClosed() does not tells us
if the underying DB connection is active or not; it only checks if
Connection.close() had been previously called or not.
One sure shot way to find out this is by executing some dummy SELECT
query and catching it via SQLException.
This could be done in various DB's as follows:
SELECT * from 1 (MS SQL)
SELECT * from DUAL(Oracle)

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,...
