Build with debug

[Tamas Szekeres]

Johan,

You can execute the code step by step in the debugger if you compile
with the debug options.

1. Use /Zi instead of /Ox in OPTFLAGS
2. LDEBUG=/debug
3. DEBUG=/DDEBUG
4. Choose the debugger type as Mixed or Native in the Project Settings

Best regards,

Tamas

My idea with the log was that I can add comments/messages in the source code and get a feeling on what are going on. But the best way would be to use the debugger and step the file as I am used to.
