I have written my own ROS node, it works well. But I am not sure if the exe is debug version or release version? How can I find out? What changes I need to make to CMakefile.txt to build release version ROS node?
You can set the build type in the CMake but it's not recommended to hard code the build type in the CMakeLists.txt but to pass it on the command line when you build. This way if you want to build with debug you just change your invocation instead of having to change the code. This is particularly important if you have a large workspace with lots of packages. If you wanted to change the build type you'd have to modify every package's CMakeLists.txt which is a pain and messy if you have other changes nearby.
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ..

Note that you can pass this to
catkin: -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Releasehttp://wiki.ros.org/catkin/Tutorials/...
catkin_tools or colcon: --cmake-args -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debughttps://catkin-tools.readthedocs.io/e...
Note that if you don't set a build type that's not debug or release in CMake https://blog.kitware.com/cmake-and-th...
To compile your code in release you have to add this flag to the CMakeLists, taken from here:
if(NOT CMAKE_CONFIGURATION_TYPES AND NOT CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE)
set(CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE Release)
endif()
Finding out if the compiled files are in debug or release is a bit tricky, take a look at this question for starters.
