Description of Compile Targets

[NITRO_FINALROM]

This is the option used to create the release version for the master submission.

When the ROM is submitted, it is necessary to use this option for the build.

[NITRO_DEBUG]

This option is used for more careful debugging than NITRO_FINALROM or NITRO_RELEASE.

For details about which functions are valid or invalid, see the debug functions in the OS Debug Function Reference.

[NITRO_RELEASE]

This option is used to debug under conditions more similar to those in the final product than when NITRO_DEBUG is used.

It's basically a combination of the features in NITRO_DEBUG and NITRO_ROM. The details of what was combined are outlined below.

Features NITRO_DEBUG NITRO_RELEASE NITRO_FINALROM
OS debug output functions such as
OS_PutString()
valid invalid
Compiler Optimization OFF ON
SDK internal debug codes valid invalid
Assert functions such as SDK_ASSERT() valid invalid
Functions such as OS_Panic() valid Equivalent to OS_Terminate()
