QMake -- how to test for build type (release, debug)

[dwilliams]

I was looking for a QMake variable that has the build type (release, debug), but I couldn't find it. So, I tried the "contains" test:

contains(OUT_PWD, *debug*)

which always returns false. And I have tried a lot of variants.

Where should I look to get that info?

Thank you. I was just going to reply that I found CONFIG on the qmake tests page, but y'all beat me to it. :)

Thank you for the quick replies!
