Excluding User Code from Compiling

If you have code that is only called by debugging routines or unit testing routines, you can enclose it in #ifdef blocks conditioned on debug compilation.

If JrDebugLog is compiled into your code the following symbols are defined:

 #define JrDebuggingFlag true

 #define JrDebugging

If JrDebugLog is not compiled into your code, the following symbols are defined:

 #define JrDebuggingFlag false

So if you have some test unit code for example you might write it as follows:

 #ifdef JrDebugging

         // code for the unit tests

         void MyUnitTest()

                 {

                 dbprintf("my unit test!");

                 }

         // register the unit tests - this is all you have to do to tell the system about your test functions

         JrDebugRegisterTestFunction("Simple Unit Test",MyUnitTest,"simple");

 #endif

In this way, the testing code will not be compiled in if the program is built without JrDebugLogging code.
