kdDebug confirmation question
Hello,
I just want a confirmation to what I think I understood about kdDebug (after some search on the web and on this forum) : are the debug mechanisms really activable only if kdelibs are compiled with --enable-debug=full ?
My problem is that I'm developping a little KDE game that still have bugs and I'd like to use kdDebug to display debug messages but I really don't want to recompile all kdelibs for this little program.
Thank you in advance.

No, I don't think so.
Run kdebugdialog an check if the category for generic is enabled.
Cheers,

No, kdDebug() will work anyway. It's just printing your message to the standard-error output channel. Use it instead of "cerr" in your KDE applications ;-)
Using --enable-debug with ./configure is a completely different story. Likely it will include a lot of debugging-information in the compiled binary (done with the -g switch of g++/gcc). This makes binary files huge and slow, but you can print a complete stack dump, and a crash dump returns the exact line numbers of the source code, etc..

Problem solved
Your hint solved my problem on one machine. I am not for the moment able to check it on the machine where I was not able to see my debug messages. But I'm sure it's OK.
Thanks to both of you
