Error-handling #ifdefs for AFNetworking requests

I am using AFNetworking 1.4.3 to send and receive network messages in iOS. My application works slightly differently in DEBUG and RELEASE mode, so I need to use #ifdef clauses. How can I simplify the following fragments without making these macros:

-

#ifdef DEBUG
        if (failure) failure([NSError fromDict:responseObject]);
#else
        if (failure) failure([NSError networkError]);
#endif

-

#ifdef DEBUG
        if (failure) failure(error);
#else
        if (failure) failure([NSError networkError]);
#endif

Whole code:

```
@implementation ELHTTPClient

• (instancetype)initWithBaseURL:(NSURL *)url {

self = [super initWithBaseURL:url];
if (self) {
__weak ELHTTPClient *weakSelf = self;
[self setParameterEncoding:AFJSONParameterEncoding];
[self registerHTTPOperationClass:[AFJSONRequestOperation class]];
[self setDefaultHeader:@"Accept" value:@"application/json"];
[self setReachabilityStatusChangeBlock:^(AFNetworkReachabilityStatus status) {
[weakSelf.delegate httpClient:weakSelf connectionStateChanged:status];
}];
}
return self;
}

• (void)myPostPath:(NSString )path parameters:(NSDictionary )parameters success:(void (^)(NSDictionary *))success failure:(ELErrorBlock)failure {

[self postPath:path parameters:parameters success:^(AFHTTPRequestOperation *operation, id responseObject) {
if ([responseObject isResponseValid]) {
if (success) success(responseObject);
}
else {
#ifdef DEBUG
if (failure) failure([NSError fromDict:responseObject]);
#else
if (failure) failure([NSError networkError]);
#endif
}
} failure:^(AFHTTPRequestOperation operation, NSError error) {
// [self.delegate httpClient:self networkError:error];
// NSLog(@"Network error. Operation: %@, \n Error: %@", operation, error);
#ifdef DEBUG
if (failure) failure(error);
#else
if (failure) failure([NSError

I would put ifdef DEBUG inside the failure method, so it's handled in one place only.

(void) failure(id response, NSError error) {

#ifdef DEBUG

#else

#endif

}
