Stuck on an issue?

Emit $(DefineConstants);RELEASE for release configuration.

See original GitHub issue

Today, as part of migration we have to emit the following:

<PropertyGroup Condition=" '$(Configuration)' == 'Release' ">
    <DefineConstants>$(DefineConstants);RELEASE</DefineConstants>
  </PropertyGroup>

We do that because project.json had this defineconstants in it, so, to keep the behavior the same for migrated projects, we have to emit it as well.

Would it be possible to emit this in SDK itself?

We already define DEBUG so I don’t know why we wouldn’t define RELEASE. Probably just an oversight.

I’m fine with it. Do we want a magic define based on configuration as with target framework?
