hello, i am building a WAR file for final release. after reading
http://info.borland.com/techpubs/jbuilder/jbuilder9/bajb/debug.html
i learnt that i should turn off generating symbolic debug info before
deployment. now following this page, if i have understood correctly, i will
choose "None" from the "Debug Options". i want to ask, if i turn it off,
will i lose any leverage for debugging after the product is deployed? what
are the pros-and-cons of turning off this option?

Personally, I don't turn it off when deploying to production. I'm now
aware of any performance difference (except possibly in loading classes
because the files are larger than they would be without debug
information). I also find the line numbering in exception traces to be
infinitely more useful than they would be without line numbers, so if
you're going to reduce the debugging information at least keep the "line
numbers only" option.
