[luke]

what is the differece between the build type debug and
release in target designer?
in which case the build type debug may help?
until now, i always used the release type...

Debug builds are not supported, building a debug runtime will result in
errors because not all files will be in the runtime.

Only retail builds are supported since only the retail binaries were added
to the repositories that shipped with the product.
