How to do not write log on release mode in iOS?

Question

In my memory, there's some code that can let the NSLog not work when released.

I don't want to remove my NSLog in my code.It helps a lot on debug mode.

So I want to find a way that can leave them in my code, and also don't slow down the application when released.

Thanks for your help~~

Answer 1

A common way to remove all NSLog(…) call in a release is to create a macro that is between conditional preprocessor macro and compiles to nothing, something like this:

#ifdef RELEASE
# define NSLog(...) //remove loggin in production
#endif

Put this code in a .h file that is included in every other file, like a Defines.h that is #include'd in the prefix header (.pch).

RELEASE should be a preprocessor macro defined against the Release configuration in the "Build Settings" tab of your target.
