Unable to build source with `DEBUGGING_SUPPORTED` undefined

[mattwarren]

I don't imaging this is a priority or even officially supported, but just thought I'd mention it. Currently you can't build the CoreCLR code with DEBUGGING_SUPPORTED undefined, you get the errors shown below.

(I assume that disabling DEBUGGING_SUPPORTED is only useful when porting the CLR to a new platform/OS/CPU right? Or is there a genuine reason for building it without debugging support?)

Or is there a genuine reason for building it without debugging support?

Another potential reason is smaller runtime.

I might be inclined to take a stab at it. However, how would one go about making sure a DEBUGGING_SUPPORTED-less build is valid? (Sorry, I do know C++ and C#, but not this codebase.)

[tommcdon]

@louis-z Thank you for taking a look at this issue! The DEBUGGING_SUPPORTED compiler option is enabled in clrdefinitions.cmake:

runtime/src/coreclr/clrdefinitions.cmake

Line 53 in 722b8a6

@louis-z Thank you for taking a look at this issue! The DEBUGGING_SUPPORTED compiler option is enabled in clrdefinitions.cmake:

add_definitions(-DDEBUGGING_SUPPORTED)

Thanks @tommcdon. I had actually figured out that bit, but was actually more interested in knowing how to validate the resulting executable. After all, even if I were to build an executable without the definition it wouldn't mean its behavior is correct.

P.S. I must admit my initial message wasn't that clear. My bad...

@louis-z Great to hear! Guidance on how to run tests can be found in https://github.com/dotnet/runtime/blob/master/docs/workflow/README.md. Hope this helps!

Hi @tommcdon,

After looking into it for a few hours, I'm almost able to compile everything. However, I get warnings/errors about pgc and def files:

PGOMGR : warning PG0188: No .PGC files matching 'C:\Users\Louis\.nuget\packages\optimization.windows_nt-x64.pgo.coreclr\99.99.99-master-20200806.6\data\coreclr!*.pgc' were found. [C:\GitHub\dotnet\runtime\artifacts\obj\coreclr\Windows_NT.x64.Release\src\dlls\mscoree\coreclr\coreclr.vcxproj]

3 Error(s)

Any idea how to resolve them?
