Guru, driver build is very short (less than a min), It uses precompiled headers. Let's have the debug build until we will have it as an option.
For user mode to take advantage on precompiled header, there is work to be dome in arranging the header files. Thank you for taking the time!

User mode code > too. Right now, we are not deploying the created executables anywhere. Appveyor does have that option. We can probably enhance it once we have a in-tree windows installer. On the release/debug question, the only option is to do both - which will increase the build time. Increase of build time means that pre-checkin check through appveyor will be slow and people may not actually use it. On the question of the pre-compiled headers, it is likely not going to help the userspace build because it is done one file at a time. I will nevertheless investigate. > > -----Original Message----- > From: dev [mailto:dev-boun...@openvswitch.org] On Behalf Of Nithin > Raju > Sent: Thursday, February 05, 2015 10:39 PM > To: Gurucharan Shetty > Cc: dev@openvswitch.org; Gurucharan Shetty > Subject: Re: [ovs-dev] [PATCH] appveyor: Build windows kernel datapath. > >> +- C:\MinGW\msys\1.0\bin\bash -lc "cd /c/openvswitch && ./configure >> CC=build-aux/cccl LD=\"`which link`\" LIBS=-lws2_32 >> --with-pthread=C:/pthreads-win32/Pre-built.2 --with-openssl=C:/OpenSSL-Win32 >> --with-vstudioddk=\"Win8.1 Release\”" > > > > Thanks for the patch. > > > > Only comment I had was to was to prefer to use "Win8.1 Debug” rather than > “Win8.1 Release”.
