[fpc-pascal] Debug and Release RTL & FCL side by side

[Graeme Geldenhuys]

Hi,

I sometimes hit a bug in my applications, but then there is no Stack
Trace information, or simply something like 3 entries that don't give
much information. See attached screenshot as an example. Apparently this
is caused by the fact that I'm using a Release build of the RTL and FCL
and the error was raised inside the RTL or FCL code.

So is there a recommended FPC setup having a Release and Debug RTL & FCL
side by side. Then in my IDE of choice (or build scripts) I can switch
between them as needed. I believe Delphi had a similar setup (or maybe
it was only for the VCL), but its been too long since I really used
Delphi to remember what Borland did.


Regards,
  Graeme
