Where are we with conditional compilation in the IDE? It is available in a basic way - could it be available in the project settings? And on the command line?

It will have to get picked up in the next round of updates.

I think I am right in saying that I can do this "today" by having projects all include an "options.wbs" file, each project specific. Then the common code can include this file, and it will be picked up appropriately. I hope so, as shared code across different applications in a single bigger project (user and admin pages) is becoming important for efficiency. The specific instance is that I have data managers, and they need different names in the localstorage.

And having now done it, this scheme does work. A useful option for anyone who wants application specific conditional compilation today.
