Check inside your APEX application if debug mode is enabled

Von Tobias Arnhold 6.08.2018
Sounds like a simple task but whenever I have the requirement to add a region and make it conditional to check if APEX is running in debug mode. I always search for half an hour finding the right solution.

Search example on Google: "Oracle APEX check debug mode conditional PL/SQL"
Trying this or 30 different other ways it always ends up with the wrong results.

But it is so easy - Conditional PL/SQL Expression:
APEX_APPLICATION.G_DEBUG

G_DEBUG returns true or false!
The documentation is a bit imprecise because it says 'Yes' or 'No'.

Anyway it is all well documented in the APEX documentation
