As .exe size reduction by using Optimal mode became irrelevant over years, I have removed Optimal mode (and Size / Speed) from theide.

It is now either Debug or Release and options for release are by default set to speed optimization.

Hello Mirek,

It should also be done for umk... So all options in command line are redundant.

Sincerely,
Klugier

Debug or Release seems like a good change.

When will the nightly builds include this change?
edit: upp 9861 has the change

Wouldn't it be better to allow user to define his/her own modes/configurations? Inheritance would also be a great option.
I personally usually have at least one extra-mode: Profiling (Release + debug information).

TIA

Uhm, we have just removed "optimal/speed/size" as too complicated Smile

Anyway, release+debug can be setup in Output mode. I do so quite regulary. Is not that enough?

It is invaluable when optimizing the code..

Well, profiling often requires -fno-omit-frame-pointer (as in case of "prof" on Linux).
Optimal was just confusing because there was impossible to set command line arguments in case of Optimal.
In general, the problem is more complicated than just multiple configurations and inheritance, but having multiple user-defined configuration would make life much more easier, and being able to inherit from another configuration would be just amazing. Smile
