Debug.WriteLine and Trace.WriteLine

[Bob S]

I am using Debug.WriteLine and Trace.WriteLine to output messages from a
dll. This dll is used in an application.
No matter whether i run the program in release mode or debug mode and
whether i define/undefine DEBUG and TRACE compiler definitions, I still get
the messages in the Output window.
What might be the problem?

Thanks
Bob

Where do you want the messages to show up? If you want to redirect to a file
for instance, one way to do so is to add a tracelistener object.

I do not want to redirect messages. I just want to know why I am getting
wrong behavior :
