#if DEBUG
Console.WriteLine("Mode=Debug");
#else
Console.WriteLine("Mode=Release");
#endif

OR better still

C#

[Conditional("DEBUG")]
void PrintLog() {
    Console.WriteLine("Debug info");
}

void Test() {
    PrintLog();
}

C#

if (System.Diagnostics.Debugger.IsAttached)
  {
           // Do this
  }
  else
  {
            // Do that
  }

or

C#

#If DEBUG Then 
    Console.WriteLine("Debug mode.") 
#Else 
    Console.WriteLine("Release mode.") 
#End If

Make sure that the option "Configuration settings" -> "Build" "Define DEBUG constant" in the project properties is checked.

or

#If CONFIG = "Debug" Then
  'do somtehing
#Else
  'do something else
#EndIf
