CM3 code: Enabling debug info

[Philipp Burch-2]

Hello everyone,

I remember to have an option in the settings dialog of qnutconf where I
could switch the compiler, e.g. cm3-gcc or cm3-gccdbg. This was
practical, as the latter had the flags configured to disable
optimization and enable debug info in the binary. A while ago, this
setting disappeared and now we have the compiler choice in the tree, but
without the option to produce debug code. How can I get this feature
back in a clean way? I'd rather not mess around with the Makefiles, an
option that can be set right before compiling the libraries would be
much easier.

Thanks and best regards,
Philipp

Hello Phillip,

at the moment I add "CFLAGS_OPT = -g3 -Og" to UserConf.mk in the application
directory and also on the library directory when library debug is needed.

Otherwise you can add cm3-gccdbg entries on conf/tools.nut. All those
Makedefs.cm3-gccdbg still compile with -O0, while recent compilers allow -Og
resulting in much smaller, but still debuggable code.

Bye

Perfect! Thanks also for the hint with -Og, that's very good to know.

Bye,
Philipp
