Hi,
It would be nice if release build ( NODEBUG=1 ) will generate debug info
files (.pdb) the same way as debug builds. It has no impact on
performance, but will allow source level debugging for release builds.
Another greate thing to have will be a debug symbol server on MIT site
the same way as microsoft has for windows symbols, so that symbols will
be donwloaded automatically on demand by debugger itself. This way you
do not need to ship binaries with pdb symbols, keeping local footprint
small.
Regards,
Andrei.
