You have multiple solutions here:
- Use resources. You can use a resource file with only one string. In one
target, include the resource file with an empty string. In the other target,
include the resource file with the filled string.
- In your two targets, instead of including the "standard" precompiled
header file (see the C/C++ Language panel in the project settings), include
your own header file which only does two things:
. #include the standard precompiled header file
. #define something for conditional compilation
One of the header files will trigger compilation without additional string
display, the other one will display the string.
Hope this helps,
Florent.
