What predefined macro can be used to detect debug build with clang?

Question

MSVC defines _DEBUG in debug mode, gcc defines NDEBUG in release mode. What macro can I use in clang to detect whether the code is being compiled for r

Answer 1

Compilers don't define those macros. Your IDE/Makefile/ does. This doesn't depend on the compiler, but on the environment/build helper program you use.

The convention is to define the DEBUG macro in debug mode and the NDEBUG macro in release mode.
