Even, Yesterday, I started thinking about adding an extra build configuration to NMAKE makefile, controlled via command line defines, to enable such proper/full debug build for Windows. IMO, debug builds w/o /MDd are somewhat unexpected or exotic. As one of Windows users and developers, I'd vote for the default MSVC configuration for debug builds of GDAL. This would also help a bit with binary packages for Visual C++, currently, it requires nmake.opt patching. https://github.com/Microsoft/vcpkg/pull/1879 Best regards, -- Mateusz Loskot, http://mateusz.loskot.net _______________________________________________ gdal-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/gdal-dev
