Include debug information

[stevel05]

Erel,

In the next version would it be possible to get back the option to include Debug information without attaching the Debugger? I don't always want to develop running in debug mode, but it is useful to get the line numbers when it stops unexpectedly without having to then re run the app in debug mode.

Debug

I'd like to second this request - if anybody has any errors in one of my apps, I need to know where to go to find it. The debug information told me what line, and losing this feature really presents a new headache.

Sadly, I'm uninstalling 1.8 and going back to 1.7 because I really rely on that debugging information.

I'm mostly in agreement here, but it isn't enough for me to roll back. While developing, I sometimes use the debugging info but I'm not a huge fan of the debugger since it slows things down.

I understand what you mean about line numbers, but as Erel said in another thread, you can often figure out where the problem is, and so long as you backup your objects folder with each version you release, you also have the option of looking at the java source code, which should definitely point you to the problem.
