-Development tips and tricks
----------------------------
-
-**compiling for debugging**
-
-Run configure with the --enable-debug option, then make. Or run configure with
-CXXFLAGS="-g -ggdb -O0" or whatever debug flags you need.
-
-**debug.log**
-
-If the code is behaving strangely, take a look in the debug.log file in the data directory;
-error and debugging messages are written there.
-
-The -debug=... command-line option controls debugging; running with just -debug will turn
-on all categories (and give you a very large debug.log file).
-
-The Qt code routes qDebug() output to debug.log under category "qt": run with -debug=qt
-to see it.
-
-**testnet and regtest modes**
-
-Run with the -testnet option to run with "play bitcoins" on the test network, if you
-are testing multi-machine code that needs to operate across the internet.
-
-If you are testing something that can run on one machine, run with the -regtest option.
-In regression test mode, blocks can be created on-demand; see qa/rpc-tests/ for tests
-that run in -regtest mode.
-
-**DEBUG_LOCKORDER**
-
-Bitcoin Core is a multithreaded application, and deadlocks or other multithreading bugs
-can be very difficult to track down. Compiling with -DDEBUG_LOCKORDER (configure
-CXXFLAGS="-DDEBUG_LOCKORDER -g") inserts run-time checks to keep track of which locks
-are held, and adds warnings to the debug.log file if inconsistencies are detected.
