Sometimes when I quit my application (SaviHOST running a DLL that I'm making) I show this screen: Unfortunately I don't know where the error happens, because it just load that screen, not the line where the exception is made. How can I fix this? What wntdll.pdb have to do with this? Thanks sajal Shrivastava Connect to Internet. Enable Microsoft Symbol Servers in Symbol path settings. Close VS (I used VS 2015) Restart and Debug With Native. All symbols will be loaded from MS Servers. To see what line in your code caused it click continue and then a pop up pops, click retry.

I've downloaded the MSVC ABI version of Rust 1.7.0 and followed the guessing game section from the docs. I notice that the builds use the native toolchain (Visual Studio 2015 Update 2 in my case) and therefore generate native PDBs (debugging symbols) consumable by native debuggers, such as WinDBG, CDB or the Visual Studio debugger. I can easily set breakpoints, step into standard library source and so on. What I cannot do is to inspect variable values. Regardless of the debugger used, the 'Locals' display is empty. From what I can gather, the Visual Rust/RustDT IDEs display locals when using

I've got a VB.net application. Currently the release version of the application is produced without a PDB file. This gives me error logs lacking useful details such as line numbers. I'm looking at including the PDB files with future builds but i'd like to know what the advantages and disadvantages of this are (performance wise, size wise, code security wise) When you deploy your debug symbols for your application, it becomes really easy for someone to come along and reverse-engineer your work, which some people find undesirable. Likewise, you have to deploy more files and your deployable

I figured out how a .NET assembly .dll file maps to a .pdb using a GUID ( blog ). When I debug into an assembly and it asks for the source code, if I navigate to a file, it may tell me that the source code is different from the original. How does it know this? I was expecting the .pdb file to contain a checksum for each file, but it doesn't appear to. The best tool I found to dump the debug information is dia2dump . The C++ .pdb files had MD5 entries, but the C# .pdb files did not. C++ dump dia2dump -f dia2dump.pdb > dia2dump.pdb.files.txt C# dump dia2dump -f Autofac.pdb > Autofac.pdb.files

We have gone through the points listed on MSDN WRT to this error ( except for #5 ). Three different people on different machines are getting the same problem. The PDB is created, but fails somewhere in the middle. Details: 67 static libraries 4.27 GB of static libraries 1048575 bytes - size of PDB when linker fails The last couple of megabytes of the PDB are null ( zero's ) Release build succeeds & produces a PDB ( we have it turn on, with no debugging info in the exe ) Release build PDB is just under 1 GB. We have disabled virus scanners. Watched with procmon.exe and saw no suspicions

If I have a DLL (that was built in release-mode) and the corresponding PDB file, is it possible to debug (step-into) classes/methods contained in that DLL? If so, what are the required steps/configuration (e.g. where to put the PDB file)? Edit: If have the PDB file in the same place as the DLL (in the bin/debug directory of a simple console test application). I can see that the symbols for the DLL are loaded (in the Output window and also in the Modules window), but still I cannot step into the methods of that DLL. Could this be the result of compiler optimizations (as described by Michael in

When I build a release version of a project in Visual Studio 2008, it creates a .pdb file, e.g. for a simple WPF project it generates a .exe and .pdb file. I've always understood .pdb files to be for debugging , so I would expect them to be in the Debug folder but not the Release folder. And looking around at other StackOverflow questions, it doesn't seem that pdb files work well with teh Release version anyway . Why are .pdb files generated in the Release folder by default and how can I turn that option off? You are right. PDB files are for debugging but you may need to debug release builds
