GeneralRelease build with debug info Pin
Rob Caldecott12-Aug-02 5:38
Rob Caldecott12-Aug-02 5:38 
Occasionally I need to send out debug versions of my apps - I keep hold of the EXE so when I receive a Dr Watson log, I can run the EXE, attach using MSDEV, break in and jump straight to the source of the problem. Also, I used to use a tool called BugTrapper that required you ship your app with debug info, etc. Anyway, I digress. The problem is that with one application, the debug EXE is ENORMOUS!

Here is how I created the project:

* First I used the MSDEV Build|Configurations option to create a new build called Release Unstripped which is based on the normal Release build.
* I then changed the project settings for the Release Unstripped build in just two places:

From the C/C++ tab, I set Debug Info to Program Database.
From the Link tab I enable Generate debug info.

When I then do a full build of the Release, Debug and Release Unstripped versions I get the following sized EXEs:

Release: 3MB
Debug: 9MB
Release Unstripped: 18MB

How the heck can the size difference be so huge?? What am I missing? There must be a project setting I have missed??


Immerse your soul in love.
