How to turn UltimateDebug messages on and off

[CarlBarnes]

See help on “Predefined Compiler Flags” which are usually used with OMIT() or COMPILE() like:

OMIT('!** Not Debug **',_Debug_)
   Glo:DbugOff = TRUE         !Not compiled Debug so skip the Output of Debug
!** Not Debug **

OutputDebugString() calls can take some time as it must access 1 or 2 kernel objects. So heavy calling can slow your program down.

You can detect if there is a Debug Viewer running, if not set your Glo:DbugOff = TRUE

How to detect if an OutputDebugString viewer is running

Have you ever noticed that your program is running slowly because you have waaaaaay too many calls to OutputDebugString (ODS) ? What’s worse, is when it’s a complete waste, because there is no program running to benefit from ODS calls. Here’s a programmatic way to detect if a viewer is running P.S. my favorite ODS viewer is DebugView++ https://github.com/djeedjay/DebugViewPP The following code is based on VB code written by Carl Barnes.
