I'm not sure why this is. I imagine this was done before we had a

product based on resip (no symbols, but leave the asserts in).
Does anyone object to uncommenting these flags? Should we try for
a more flexible approach (another configure option)?
In terms of the flags themselves, they probably shouldn't be present in
production builds -- the assert()s themselves technically have a tiny
performance penalty (because of the compares and branches), but it's
probably not measurable.
On the other hand, it's not going to *fix* anything. The assert()
statements are present to enforce the contract between the application
and the library. If an assert() is halting the process, it's because the
application using the stack has a bug in it. The assert() should help
catch the bug earlier rather than later.
In other words: simply adding -DNDEBUG to the compile *won't* *fix* the
problems David and Sunitha are having; it will just make them more
inscrutable and harder to track down.

I am running into this same issue. Is there a specific reason the
asserts
are not compiled out in OPT build?
Thanks,
David

Subject: [reSIProcate] "opt" builds
Hi,
We have been running resiprocate built in the opt mode
and have run into crashes caused by some assertions. I
was expecting that assertions will be turned off in
non-debug modes. The makefile has explicitly commented
out the NDEBUG flag in the opt mode :
Makefile.osarch:
ifeq ($(VOCAL_COMPILE_TYPE),opt)
CXXFLAGS += $(OPTFLAGS) #-DNDEBUG
CFLAGS += $(OPTFLAGS) #-DNDEBUG
Endif
I was wondering if I could enable these back for the opt
mode. Should I use other modes to compile resiprocate so
it can be used in 'releases'?
Thanks,
Sunitha.
