Hi,

I have had AtlTrace statements, but for file logging and debugging purposes,
I wrote something similar.

But when I release the code, the compiler does not 'ignore' the statements
just as it does with TRACE or ATLTRACE etc statements.

Is there a trick to get this behaviour?

Thanks!

The wonder of C/C++ macros. TRACE (et al) are simply macros that expand to
a logging call in a debug build (#ifndef NDEBUG) and to nothing in a release
build (#ifdef NDEBUG)
