  OFFICE MEMO          Where's my decoder ring?               Date:11/19/92
Dear Apple (and MacAppers),
 
I have a debug version of my app that seems to work fine and has some major
components in place and I thought I'd build a non-debug version to see how
much disk space it would use. I compiled with  -NoDebug -NoSym -NoNeedsSystem7
and got a successful complilation. However, when I ran it I got the following
dialog when I tried to create a new document: "Could not create a new document
because an internal component is missing. Please contact the developer."
 
Checking the ErrMgr.r file shows that the debug version of this message is
"Call Apple for a secret decoder ring" -- not the most helpful information.
 
Well, Apple, I'd like my secret decoder ring. What does it mean? What causes
it to be generated? Why isn't it triggered in the debug version of my app?
