Thanks for the trick, it could be nice to complete the wiki on
http://puredata.info/docs/developer/BuildingPd with at least your approach
That is just an ugly hack and I wouldn't publicy advertize it :-)
BTW, if you can endure the slowness, you can also manually call the
'msw-app.sh' script like this:
msw/msw-app.sh -s -n <version_suffix>

I think the best solution would be to actually support running Pd
directly from the source tree (like we can already do on Linux and
macOS). Unfortunately, this is not completely trivial. I just opened a
ticket for this: https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/issues/1957

Let me know if it is worth it, I don't have an account there.

Hi,
yes, "make app" strips the binaries by default.
Since autotools/libtool is incredibly slow on Windows, I typically
only
do "make app" once in the beginning; in my IDE I have a added a
custom
build step "cp ./src/pd.dll ./pd-0.x.x/bin" that just copies the
(unstripped) Pd DLL into the bin folder (assuming I only want to
test/debug the Pd core and not one of the externals in "extra").
Cheers,
Christof
