   I am so proud of this (I'm sure others came up with it way before me, but I still came up with it all by myself!)

       //*
           normal path
       /*/
           debug path
       //*/
   

   take away the the first slash to toggle the debug zone ON!

        #if 0
          // Normal path
        #else
          // Debug path
        #endif
      

      Only works with C and C++, though.

         C#:

         #if DEBUG

             Console.WriteLine("This only compiles and runs in Debug mode.");
         

         #else

             Console.WriteLine("This only compiles and runs in Release mode.");
         

         #endif
