kDebugMode not being set

[Charlie9830]

Hi Ardera.

I am using flutter-pi as part of a Yocto build.
Based off of jwinarkse's build.

The engine is built in release mode, as is my Flutter App. However, the Dart constant kDebugMode is evaluating to true at runtime.

The Flutter documentation suggests the follow about the kDebugMode constant.

More specifically, this is a constant that is true if the application was not compiled with '-Ddart.vm.product=true' and
'-Ddart.vm.profile=true'.

I am not skilled with C or C++, would I be correct in assuming that those flags need to be set whilst compiling the embedder?

no, those flags are set when generating the AOT snapshot using the gen_snapshot executable. See the building the app.so section in the readme, step 4. The commandline argument -Ddart.vm.product=true is what sets that flag.
