Wireshark · Wireshark-dev: Re: [Wireshark-dev] Conditional compilation (debug)

[Dario Lombardo <dario.lombardo.ml@xxxxxxxxx>]

I was thinking to something like CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE (Debug/Release), but I'm not sure it fits the purpose and anyway it is cmake specific.

The goal is: I want to make the debug of the interaction between ui and extcaps easier. For that I'd like to use some debug entries in the extcap interface dialog. Those flags are mostly developer-oriented, then I'd like to get rid of them in release builds, although I don't know if wireshark release builds and others differ in some way.

I'd like something that mimics assert() behavior, if I'm not mistaken.

Hi

I'd like to add some code that appears only in development builds of wireshark. Is there some define that helps me understand if I am in such a case, both in autotools and cmake?

Define "development build."  Do you mean 2.3.x or 2.5.x or do you mean anything not built on a buildbot?  For the latter we frequently just check if we're running in a build directory (there's also an environment variable for that).
