Debug Build

This skill creates a debug build of YARS with full debug symbols for debugging sessions.

Usage

Automatically invoked when:

  • User asks for a debug build
  • Preparing to use valgrind or gdb
  • Need to debug crashes or memory issues
  • Investigating specific runtime behavior

Steps

# Navigate to build directory
cd build

# Configure for debug mode
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug ..

# Build with parallel jobs
make -j4

Success Criteria

  • ✅ CMake configures with Debug build type
  • ✅ Compilation includes debug symbols (-g flag)
  • ✅ No optimizations that would interfere with debugging
  • ✅ Binary ready for valgrind/gdb usage

Notes

  • Debug builds are larger and slower than release builds
  • Optimizations are disabled for better debugging experience
  • Use this before running memory leak checks or debuggers
  • To switch back to release, use the release-build skill
