Software Build Settings for GNUPro
For the example design you will produce two versions of the software
build settings for GNUPro: debug settings and release settings. For the
debug settings version you will not apply optimization, but include
debug information to facilitate using the GNU Insight debugger. You will
apply optimization to the release settings version, but debug information
is unnecessary because the release settings version will only be used when
the software code has been debugged and is known to be working. The
release settings version of the software build produces a software image
that is faster than the software image produced with debug settings.
