#TOOLS metastatement

Purpose

Enable or disable integrated development tool code in compiled code.

Syntax

#TOOLS [ON|+ | OFF|-]

Remarks

The #TOOLS metastatement allows integrated development tools like TRACE, PROFILE, and CALLSTK to be readily disabled, ensuring that extra code and data is not compiled into the final (distribution) version of an application. #TOOLS defaults to ON, and may appear only once in the source code, before any statement that generates executable code.
