I want to define my own compilation constants for generating custom code. How can I do that?

 

Hi,

Right click the project (The Class Library is a project) and click Properties to open the properties window. Then click the Build tab, input symbols in the “Conditional compilation symbols:” textbox. Use comma to separate each symbol (e.g. “MySymbol1,MySymbol2”). Then use them in this way.

#if MySymbol1
    // You code
#endif

public Void MyFunction()
{
   CallA();
   CallB();
}

// This code will only execute when you have debug build executing
[Conditional("Debug")]
private void CallA()
{
   //. CODE
}

/// ALSO can use some thing like
#IfDef DEBUG
  // CODE
#endif
