digitalmars.D.learn - unit testing

Can anyone explain to me the proper way to put a unittest { ... } block into 
my code so that the only time unit tests get compiled and run is if I'm in a 
release mode?

I thought that I could simply compile with:

dmd -release mymodule.d

However, when I run the resulting executable the unit tests are getting 
executed. I can wrap the unittest { ... } block in a debug { ... } block, 
but is this really the best way?

Thanks for the help

Sorry, it seems that the dmd is not the problem here. In fact, what was 
being executed was the following:

dsss build mymodule.d -release

This seems to be compiling unit tests in all the time. I'm not sure why. Can 
anyone help with this?

Does your dsss.conf file have the -unittest flag in it? If so, that's why.

I discovered this to be user error. I didn't realize that dsss was creating 
a "dsss_objs" folder. For whatever reason, I couldn't simply do a "dsss 
build mymodule.d" and have it cleanly create a new instance. I guess I need 
to do a "dsss clean" before rebuilding. Thanks for the help Jarret

Alternatively, you can do "dsss build -full mymodule.d". That forces a full rebuild. And it's Jarrett with two Ts.

You should see what happens to my surname. I have a list of more than 200 different ways that people have got it wrong. Including several on official documents.

Wow, I get my last name misspelled too but not quite that diversely. You wouldn't think "Clugston" would give people that much trouble.

Gwgston, Cluster, Augsta, Klaxton, Coueston, Clipson, McClugston, ... And three different variants in one school report. Every teacher spelt it differently. My favourite was for my grandfather: a commemorative plaque to Mr Plugphon for 35 years of service as the former CEO. Ary must have a really hard time.

But those aren't even spelling errors--they're entirely different names! And I thought having people pronounce my name as "seen" was bad (yes, teachers too). Sean

My name (Ary) is pretty uncommon here in Argentina. But the name "Ariel" is somewhat common and people use "Ary" as a shorthand for "Ariel". So people not only get the spelling of my last name wrong, they also fight with my name. I say "Hola, soy Ary" and they say "Ariel?", "No, Ary", "Ariel?", etc., or they just suppose I'm Ariel and later they call me like that. :-P

If you change the dsss.conf file, DSSS will detect that and do a full rebuild. But if other things change out from under it (like library versions or sometimes code) then you will need a -full / or clean. It isn't like SCONS, which keeps an md5 hash of dependencies to detect any changes that might affect a build. --bb
