Mateusz,

Can you please look into the reason why there are debug symbols in the
windows binaries made with CMake?

I see this line is trying to link and strip the symbols, but we need
to verify that it is having an effect on Windows:

SET(CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS_RELEASE "-s")

If the -s is given to the link step, it should strip symbols, and
running strip.exe on the subsequent output executable should have no
(appreciable) change in size if the symbols were actually stripped.

Thanks!

Dick



Hi,
sorry for not answering earlier. I'm on vacation mastering my
snowboard skills :)



I am more than jealous. When I learned snowboarding I had a pocket full of Ibuprofen. Some lady at the top of the hill was willing to pay me $100 for a single Ibuprofen, because she had a head ache, and her time to go get some was valuable.

I declined the money and helped her out anyway.

The pocket full of Ibuprofen is highly recommended for new snowboarders. :-)
