## Introduction It can be useful to use a different setup depending on your Xcode build configuration, e.g. disable Beta Update checks in Debug builds. To do that, we recommend to define a preprocessor macro for all configurations and use compiler directives to setup the SDK depending on the currently used build configuration. **Note:** Beta Update checks is automatically disable when the SDK detects it is running in an App Store build. So you don't have to do anything in that scenario! ## HowTo 1. Select your project in the Project Navigator. 2. Select your target. 3. Select the tab "Build Settings". 4. Enter "preprocessor macros" into the search field. ![XcodeMacros1.png](XcodeMacros1_normal.png) 5. Select the top-most line and double-click the value field. 6. Click the + button. 7. Enter the following string into the input field and finish with "Done".
CONFIGURATION_$(CONFIGURATION)
