<h1 align=center>Compile-time configuration</h1>
<p>There are two compile-time configuration options that assist in debugging
Berkeley DB and Berkeley DB applications.
<p><dl compact>
<p><dt>--enable-debug<dd>If you want to build Berkeley DB with <b>-g</b> as the C and C++ compiler
flag, enter --enable-debug as an argument to configure. This will create
Berkeley DB with debugging symbols, as well as load various Berkeley DB routines
that can be called directly from a debugger to display database page
content, cursor queues and so forth. (Note that the <b>-O</b>
optimization flag will still be specified. To compile with only the
<b>-g</b>, explicitly set the <b>CFLAGS</b> environment variable
before configuring.)
<p><dt>--enable-diagnostic<dd>If you want to build Berkeley DB with debugging run-time sanity checks and with
DIAGNOSTIC #defined during compilation, enter --enable-diagnostic as an
argument to configure. This will cause a number of special checks to be
performed when Berkeley DB is running. This flag should not be defined when
configuring to build production binaries, as it degrades performance.
<p>In addition, when compiling Berkeley DB for use in run-time memory consistency
checkers, in particular, programs that look for reads and writes of
uninitialized memory, use --enable-diagnostic as an argument to configure.
This guarantees that Berkeley DB will completely initialize allocated pages
rather than only initializing the minimum necessary amount.
