31  By default \imp performs a variety of runtime error checks. These
32  can be controlled using the IMP::set_check_level function. Call
33  IMP::set_check_level with IMP::NONE to disable all checks when you
34  are performing your optimization as opposed to testing your
35  code. Make sure you run your code with the level set to at least
36  USAGE before running your final optimization to make sure that
37  \imp is used correctly.
38 
39  Error handling is provided by IMP/exception.h,
40 
41  Use the \c gdbinit file provided in \c tools to automatically have \c gdb
42  break when \imp errors are detected.
