No Z7 or Zi anywhere in the CMake files and the generated makefiles include
/Zi. So I don't know why the dll's would be bigger and generate proper
backtrace information when analyzing a dump file but so it is and thats
fine with me for now.

I am not entirely sure what you mean but CMake&#39;s default flags for the \
Visual Studio compiler when building &quot;Debug&quot; or \
&quot;RelWithDebInfo&quot; use /Zi (debug information in external pdb) \
rather than /Z7 (embedded debug information; no pdb is generated).<br> <br>
Maybe your project replaces the default \
flags?</blockquote><div><br></div><div>No Z7 or Zi anywhere in the CMake \
