Haru 290 Posted January 17, 2016 Rationale: Historically, we've received several crash reports or null pointer reports that were of barely any use, because they were produced by servers built without debug information. Contents: The default build mode, when using the UNIX ./configure && make build scripts, is now set to include debug information. Impact: The performance decrease when built in debug mode should be negligible. In any case, it's still possible to disable the debug mode while compiling. Users concerned with minimal performance improvements, who don't want a readable backtrace in case of issues, can still pass --disable-debug to the configure script. Details: The configure script provides a command line flag to enable/disable/configure the debug mode options: Before this commit, the default, when passing no options, was equivalent to: ./configure --disable-debug After this commit, the default will be: ./configure --enable-debug Another recommended option worth mentioning, that might improve the debugger's ability to produce meaningful information (in case of gdb) is: ./configure --enable-debug=gdb Merge Date: Sun, 10 Jan 2016 18:34:56 +0300 Related Pull Requests: - #1090 - https://github.com/HerculesWS/Hercules/pull/1090 - Enable debug information in configure by default.
