Re: conditional directives

Peter,

The context of your query became somewhat clearer with the replies from the
gentlemen mentioned.  Yes, it is sometimes not quite intuitive or clear how
your project properties relate to the directive variables.  I think a
default DEBUG would help quite a bit:  Get unexpected results and check your
settings, instead of having to hike through several menu options to support
expected debug behaviour.
