[iOS] How to check if we are in debug build

[Jérémy MARQUER]

Hi,

Is it possible to check if it's a debug build or release one, right in the code ? I find nothing similar to :

Display.getInstance().isSimulator();

I would like to know that for iOS platform because there is two build possibilities via menu, but I also need this for Android.

Thanks.

I maintain two distinct builds sharing the same sources, and  I use different version numbers for the builds,
so I typically have version 1.xx as a release or beta build, and 2.xx as a debug build.

Hi,
no. We don't know that since both builds in Apple terms are "release" builds.
The differences are very minor

Dave : thanks, maybe I could do that. But when you will need to release a major version, you will switch from 1.XX to 3.XX directly ?!

Shai : Sure, but in your plugin, you know that when we click on "Send debug build" or "Send release build" button. So, maybe you can modify a value in the code.

Fortunately there are lots of version numbers available :)  No one but me ever sees the debug sequence.   Also, since it's a separate
build, It's also possible to have other differences, for example embedding a console window in the debug version.

When you send a build this maps to the appropriate target in the build.xml file. You can modify that target in the build.xml file and do whatever you want.
