From what I've been told this is mainly used by some Oracle devs.
If this is about --enable-dbgutil, I still use it, at times. My code at least does some extra runtime checks that are too expensive in my mind for production code - additionally, if you build with internal stlport, you get their debug mode (which is totally helpful to catch e.g. invalid iterator usages etc.) There is discussion every once in a while to remove that mode, and roll all the code into production use (runtime-configurable, if need be) - or pour it into unit tests in the first place. But I think we're not there _yet_. Cheers, -- Thorsten
