Sometimes I like to include some code which will only run when complied in Debug config. This is simple enough, just add some preprocessor commands like so:
#if DEBUG //Do some debug-only stuff here. #endif
However this always looks a bit ugly to me. A much tidier way of achieving the same is to use conditional method attribute like so:
[Conditional("DEBUG")] private void DoSomething() { //Do some debug-only stuff here. }
The only catch with this is that the method must return void. This is necessary to allow it to be included/excluded depending on the compilation config used. It can be worked around by using reference parameters on the method itself.
Anyway, here’s a photo of a skiing penguin.
