  You can use them if you want to restrict compliler from compiling something..Like For Example, Consider you want a block has to be complied in debug mode but not it release mode.

  Good article Sukesh. It is rare to see articles on topic like this. And yes I use #if DEBUG a lot :). Cheers!

  I just want to add one more to the above: #if DEBUG //code to run when in debug mode #else //code to run when in release mode #endif

  Thank you Sukesh for the somewhat unnoticed concepts. I just want to add that in case anyone is wondering why #define is not used more, the answer is that many experienced developers consider it to be something to be avoided and obviously Microsoft agrees. The #define in C# is very much like #define in C++ and in C++ a #define is also called a macro. See what the designer of C++, Bjarne Stroustrup, says about macros in: http://www.stroustrup.com/bs_faq2.html#macro
