Hi,

Anyone knows by heart what to check for in a PE header to decide whether a dll 
is a debug build, or not?

Background: Qt has a neat tool to package all of the Qt/non qt dependencies 
together for deployment: windeployqt. To function properly, it has to decide 
whether an executable/dll is a debug build, or not ... 

The logic so far is at:
https://qt.gitorious.org/qt/qttools/source/24ed30750d87e022f583c64cf0ff77652ec1078b:src/windeployqt/utils.cpp#L731

And we decide whether it's a debug build or not is essentially (32 bit):

ntHeaders32->OptionalHeader.DataDirectory[IMAGE_DIRECTORY_ENTRY_DEBUG].Size != 0

Now that fails for Mingw :(

I've to admit I'd have only occasionally exposure to the PE file format, so 
before spending too much time on it: Does anyone know a way to do this check 
for MinGW? Is it even possible?

Regards

Kai
