what is the difference between build and release..

Answer / rakesh kumar jaiswal

In a debug build the complete symbolic debug information is
emitted to help while debugging applications and also the
code optimization is not taken into account.

While in release build the symbolic debug info is not
emitted and the code execution is optimized.
Also, because the symbolic info is not emitted in a release
build, the size of the final executable is lesser than a
debug executable.
