Debug/release mode

Hai guys
im fresher to after effects plugin development, when i open the cs3 sdk project samples in vs2005, i didnt get any option to release build the project, i can find only debug mode
do we need to release build the project to use the plugin in other computers or we can use the debug version itself
thankyou

these are a couple of threads dealing with this issue.

Code runs fine in debug mode but hangs when compiled in release mode

I am struggling with the following problem. I have code which runs fine when it is executed in debug mode. However, when I compile it in release mode and run the executable, the code freezes and does not work. The code acquires images from a Hamamatsu camera. In the debug mode I am able to continuously acquire images. However, in the release version, the code hangs after acquiring the first image.
I am using LabWindows/CVI version 7.
I would greatly appreciate if I can get any help/suggestions in resolving this problem?
Thanks!

Sripad:
If you search this forum for "debug release crash" or "release version crash" or similar phrases, you'll find that this is a pretty common question. Look through the other posts you find here to see if anything is applicable to you.
The debug version does some things like padding variables so you can sometimes overrun your declared variable space without overwriting the next variable. In the release, the variables are packed, so if you overrun one, you are overwriting another. Just one possible difference.
You can do some things in your release code to see where things get lost, like (temporarily using printf statements after multiple statements at the start and end of your loop to try to identify that failing line of code.
Look through other threads to find other ideas.

Event receiver works perfectly in debug mode, but fails in release mode

Here is my item added event which works perfectly and gives read permission to CCfield user in debug mode, but doesn't give permissions to CCfield user when item added event is triggered in release mode:
base.ItemAdded(properties);
try
SPListItem item = properties.ListItem;
string idnumber = Convert.ToString(properties.ListItem["ID"]);
string itemurl = properties.ListItem.Url;
SPWeb web = properties.Web;
item.BreakRoleInheritance(false, false);
//item.Update();
string ccfield = Convert.ToString(properties.ListItem["EmailCc"]);
string STRFirst = "<" ;
string STRLast = ">";
int Pos1 = ccfield.IndexOf(STRFirst) + STRFirst.Length;
int Pos2 = ccfield.IndexOf(STRLast);
string ccfield1 = ccfield.Substring(Pos1, Pos2 - Pos1);
SPUser user = item.Web.EnsureUser(ccfield1);
SPRoleAssignment roleAssignment = new SPRoleAssignment(user);
roleAssignment.RoleDefinitionBindings.Add(web.RoleDefinitions["Read"]);
item.RoleAssignments.Add(roleAssignment);
catch (Exception e)
throw;
Any help?

Event receivers run using the permissions of the user who triggered the event. If your user does not have rights to manage permissions then you will need to run your security code with elevated permisisons.
SPSecurity.RunWithElevatedPrivileges(delegate()
{ your code here } )
Note that RunWithElevatedPermissions will not work with Sandbox code.

Project runs Ok in debug mode but not in release mode

I have an application developed with VC++ 6.0 and measurement studio. The application controls SCXI-1161/1166 relay boards to connect the UUT. The application runs ok in debug mode, but in release mode the application can't drive the relay boards. I have tried to change optimizations mode, it didn't work. Who can tell me how to solve the problem? Thanks!

It sounds like you have an older version of our SWITCH driver which relies on our DAQ driver. I would recommend uninstalling the Traditional DAQ, DAQmx, and SWITCH drivers and then installing the newest version. At this point you have 2 options:
1) You can download Traditional DAQ 7.4, DAQmx 7.4, and NI-SWITCH 2.4 drivers bundled together here: ftp://ftp.ni.com/support/daq/pc/ni-daq/7.4/
2) You can install the latest version: NI-DAQmx 7.5 here: http://digital.ni.com/softlib.nsf/websearch/CF7ECCEA4C4CC7DE86257038004D88AE?opendocument&node=13206... This has support for all of our USB DAQ devices (if you're not using them then you may not want to worry about installing this now) and then install Traditional DAQ 7.4 here: http://digital.ni.com/softlib.nsf/websearch/C36A54ADDA3DC33D86257038004E55E6?opendocument&node=13206... and NI-SWITCH 2.4 here: http://digital.ni.com/softlib.nsf/websearch/9D6B8C7FD41BF3D08625702E0072E294?opendocument&node=13206...
This should solve your problem.

[WP8.1 Native C++] Release mode creating Debug dump file on device

Hello,
My WP8.1 Native C++ game is creating Debug dump file while testing with a real WP8.1 device, even though it is published under Release mode. Is this normal? or should I be concerned? The game is not crashing or anything, just outputting the debug
file which is around 50-60MB.
I am using Directxtk and CurrentAppSimulator.

Thank you for all the help :)

Performance Diference between debug mode and release mode

Hi ,
I have been running an C++ multithreaded application with below technical specification on Production for more than an year.
OS - Solaris 10 , Opteron
Compiler - Sun Studio 11
Bit Mode - 64
I wanted to know what is the difference in the debug mode of an C++ application compiled with -g option and a release mode compiled with an optimization apart from the size of the binary and availability of debug information in case of a crash.
1) Does it degrade the performance of the application? If yes by what extent?
2) Does it use more memory?
3) Will switching from Debug to Release mode with some optimization coupled with any kind of risk like byte guard etc which could lead to dumps and all? If yes what could those be?
4) Which optimization level should be used?
Regards,
Ankur Verma

If you compile without any optimization (with or without -g), you will see a noticeable difference in performance in most programs compared to compiling with a reasonable level of optimization. How much difference depends on the nature of the program, and what percentage of time is spent in code regions that can benefit from the code improvements.
If you add -g, function inlining is disabled, which can dramatically reduce program performance. You can't debug a function that is generated inline, which is why this option disables inlining. (The +d option also disables inlining.)
If you use -g0 instead of -g, function inlining is preserved.
If you use -g0 with optimization, you get the advantages of optimization while still allowing limited debugging. (Local variables are not visible.) Beginning with Sun Studio 12 update 1, the current release, -g with optimization enables function inlining, so the effect of (for example) "-O -g" becomes the same as "-O -g0".
A few optimizations are disabled with -g or -g0, the exact difference depending on the compiler release and patch level. Most programs won't see a difference in performance.
Since you are running on Solaris 10, you should upgrade to the current release, Sun Studio 12 update 1. You will get many improvements and some new diagnostic tools. The new release is a drop-in replacement for Studio 11. You don't have to recompile any existing binaries, but you will want to recompile to get improved performance.

Obj-C errors in a C app in release mode

I've made this c++ app that uses GLUT and OpenGL to display a square on the screen that you can move around with the arrow keys. I wanted to show my friend, so I compiled in release mode. Upon doing so, I got 1120 errors in various Obj-c headers that I don't import. I've never seen them before, and I'm pretty sure GLUT doesn't use them because I can compile in debug mode and have the app work just fine.
Source code is here: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2223161/OpenGL.zip
Does anyone know why that's happening?

While in Release build double click on the OpenGL target to get the Target Info panel. Go to the Build tab, make sure the config is set to 'Release' and scroll down to the GCC Language section and remove '$(SYSTEM_LIBRARY_DIR)/Frameworks/AppKit.framework/Headers/AppKit.h' from the 'Prefix Header' setting leaving it blank. Rebuild.

Photoshop SDK - Plug In - Release Mode

Hello,
I'm building a Plug In for Photoshop using the CS6 SDK for Windows (64 Bit on Windows 7, VS 2010).
I'm using optimizations which only work in "Release Mode".
In your samples I have only "Debug" mode.
How can I move into release mode?
Thanks.
P.S.
I saw the Dissolve sample code has "Release Mode" which really enabled the optimizations and yieleded a much faster code.
The question is, how different it is from other samples, namely, How could I reconfigure other samples into "Release Mode".
Thanks.

In the Visual Studio Configration Manage you have to create an configuration, call it "Release" and make sure that the settings of the Debug configuration are copied to the new configuration. Then you have to change the several properties of the new Release configuration so that it outputs a release instead of a debug version, e.g. changing the run time library from "Multithreaded-Debug" to "Multithreaded" and deactivating the debug information generation. You also need to remove the DEBUG preprocessor definition in various places.
All in all, it is a complex process, so it is better if you have a project that contains both debug and relase configurations and you compare the properties of both. Then you can see which things are activated in one configuration and not in the other.

Using Zllib, Xerces and Boost (in release mode)

I've developped a Export plugin which used Zlib, Xerces, and Boost libs. (This libs are used in a statically.)
In debug mode, the plugin is loaded correctly, and worked fine.
I want to build this plugin in a release mode, in order to test it on an designer's workstation.
The compilation is executed without problems. the same for link operations. But when I tried to load at Illustrator's startup, a message box is shown, telling me my plugin was not loaded correctly, and not loaded at all.
I've took a look at my project settings, to check if my settings were ok (used static libs in debug or release mode), if there was no conflicts in precompiled header............
I did not find! So if someone would have some tips to help me, it would be great!
Thx,
Thomas.

I have finally found the problem!
After having unplugged all the code I have written and replugged the all by block of code,
I have found where I was wrong! it has taken me almost a day of work!
the probleme was in the using of #ifndef, define!
just this few lines:
#ifndef _XERCESSTRING_H
#define _XERCESSTRING_H
#include <xercesc/util/XMLString.hpp>
#ifdef XERCES_CPP_NAMESPACE_USE
XERCES_CPP_NAMESPACE_USE
#endif
I have fixed that! now project can be built in release.
Thanks for helping me!

Call labview dlls in release mode

Hi all,
I built a LabVIEW dll for the bluetooth connection, at the beginning I called this dll in the VS C++ in the debug mode, it worked very well.
but due to the application, all the code should run in release mode. Unfortunately error occured, " Runtime error, R6030 CRT not initialized".
I googled, but i did not get something useful.
I appreciate any comments and information, and apologize for my poor english.
ps. I tried to use different runtime library, and finially I got only multi-thread DLL was suitable.

the attachments are the VC code and the dll files,
I really appreciate any comments about thie problem.

Building AEGPs in Release mode

Hello,
Wanted to get some help with building AEGPs in release mode (Visual Studio 2005). The examples provided in the SDK have only Debug mode project configurations.
Help?
Thanks,
Eran Kalmanson

The varieties of what "Release" means to different developers, together with the constant sample maintenance headache of updating a configuration that's NEVER intended to see the light of day (you don't ship sample projects), led me to remove the release configurations from all SDK samples, years ago.
I think Zac is planning to add at least one Release config to the SDK to get you started, but only you know what "Release" means to your users.

Flash contents not loading in release mode

I have a cocoa application that loads web page on a webview .When I run this application on release mode , is loading the page without Flash contents and displaying in console as shown below,

/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/Flash Player.plugin/Contents/MacOS/Flash Player: GC capability mismatch
but if I ran this same application in Debug mode , its loading the flash contents also on to webview.
how can I load the flash contents of web page in release mode also.
Any advices would be appreciated.
thanks in advance.

I would say that you declared the wrong type of IBOutlet or some other variable in your program. Posting here might give better results.
In either case, I'd try to stay away from Flash. It's buggy at best.

IOS package crashes in any non-debug compile mode

Hi,
I am looking really for ideas on where to start looking!
This is the situation:
I am migrating a largish flex, web project to mobile. This is the third iteration and I have had the entire thing working at various times in various forms. It loads strings via resource bundle and content via external SWF content.
I have recently reorganised to use a view architecture so that I load in the main app view after a selection workflow - this means that there is much faster startup and better performance in general. It works fine in the following compiles:
1. Compile for Android (all kinds)
2. Compile for iOS debug (fast)
3. Compile for iOS debug (standard)
BUT:
If I compile for iOS ad hoc distribution, I see the following:
1. Initial view loads, resource bundle strings are displaying
2. When I go to main product view:
- SWF fails to complete load process and hangs with no strings from resource bundle visible
- crash occurs prior to addition of navigatorContent buttons that I've defined in the product's base state
In other words, something that works in _all_ other settings and compile options, simply will not progress when packaged for release in iOS.
I am at a bit of a loss. I am aware that iOS can't support bytecode and am working on eliminating that, but I have run it using this with the bytecode simply ignored, which is fine as I don't want it there either. I have also tried substituting for JPEG content, but the issue below still seems to be present. I have also tried eliminating loaded font files - again, these were not working, but the problem was simply ignored when I had the product as the main rather than a sub view.
Does anyone have any idea at all what could be causing this?
Thanks,
G

Got it.
I was using the Swiz framework (which is brilliant, btw) and compiling the Swiz library rather than using the SWC as I needed a change to the underlying, I had omitted one of the metadata tags from the compiler args - for some reason, it recovered when run in any other compile mode, but crashed when run in release mode.

Thread won't run in release mode

My application runs fine in Debug mode. I have several threads. A couple just blink some LEDS. In release mode they don't blink and my main function that is triggered by a button which runs a callback function that launches another thread doesn't work.

Hello,
it's difficult to try guessing what's happening with no informations available. Apparently ther's something that's causing a program crash in release mode and you suppose it relates to some problem in memory allocation. Additionally, it seems your program is consuming system resources until it fills up all available memory.
Are you freeing the dynamic memory when no longer needed? Are you sure you don't have any memory leak that can cause this increment in memory occupation? You must double check that every dynamic array allocated is freed when no longer used; you may want to swap part of the dynamic memory to disk if you are not using it constantly.
Additionally, have you a consistent and robust error checking method that logs all errors found to the user interface or to disk?
Another hint if you have CVI2009+ can be to activate extended debugging level in Build Options, next run the program some time in debug mode and close it: if some resources are not properly freed the Resource tracking window should appear with all allocated resources listed that are not correctly freed by the code.
Proud to use LW/CVI from 3.1 on.
