The debugger checks various locations for symbols by default. See Where the debugger looks for symbols. Only the specified folder is searched. You must add entries for any subfolders that you want to search. Optional To improve symbol loading performance, under Cache symbols in this directory , type a local folder path that symbol servers can copy symbols to. Use a read-write folder instead. Specify the modules that you want the debugger to load from the Symbol file.
Select Load all modules, unless excluded the default to load all the symbols for all modules in the symbol file location, except modules you specifically exclude. To load only modules you specify from the symbol file locations, select Load only specified modules.
The symbol files for other modules are not loaded. For details, see DLL export tables. Reading DLL export information involves some overhead, so loading export tables is turned off by default.
Enable address level debugging and Show disassembly if source not available. Uses Source Server to help debug an app when there is no source code on the local machine, or the. Source Server takes requests for files and returns the actual files from source control. Source Server runs by using a DLL named srcsrv. You can limit the commands that srcsrv. Place the srcsrv. Arbitrary commands can be embedded in an app's. Any attempt to execute a command not in the srcsvr. No validation is done on command parameters, so be careful with trusted commands.
For example, if you listed cmd. Select this item and the child items you want. Allow source server for partial trust assemblies Managed only and Always run untrusted source server commands without prompting can increase the security risks. You can also set compiler options in code. Visual Studio can load symbols from a dump file with a heap, even if it can't find an app binary. Dump files without heaps are much smaller than dumps with heaps, but the debugger must load the app binaries to find symbol information.
The loaded binaries must exactly match the ones running during dump creation. Dump files without heaps save the values of stack variables only. While you are debugging a process in Visual Studio, you can save a dump when the debugger has stopped at an exception or breakpoint.
With Just-In-Time Debugging enabled, you can attach the Visual Studio debugger to a crashed process outside of Visual Studio, and then save a dump file from the debugger. See Attach to running processes. You can create dump files with any program that supports the Windows minidump format. For example, the Procdump command-line utility from Windows Sysinternals can create process crash dump files based on triggers or on demand. See Requirements and limitations for information about using other tools to create dump files.
In the Open File dialog box, locate and select the dump file. It will usually have a. No, opening a. It is binary data. I know you have a relevant. You probably got the. Reading a. But it will not show you anything you don't already know from the debugger. You got the stripped one, it will never show more than what you see in the call stack window. Ultimately, this is a chain of XY questions. You keep asking about Y without ever revealing what the real X problem is all about.
You'll just get useless answers, like this one, until you tell us about X. Keep in mind though, that those files are for the debugger and not directly for you. At least I don't have the urgent wish of being able to read every possible file format in a text or hex editor. Bearing in mind Hans Passant's remarks - I think the question as is deserves an answer, if nothing else then for sake of those arriving here by search.
It is bundled with debugging tools for windows. While admittedly a command line tool I'm from the GUI generation personally , it is tremendously rich in features and you'd be hard pressed to find anything it can't do in half a line.
It does not indicate the location of the Root stream itself, only of the page containing the structure which points to its pages. At that page, the Root stream page number list indicates the pages where the Root stream is stored. It contains 4 bytes per page, enough to cover the above Root stream size.
Root stream [ edit ] The root stream describes all of the PDB streams starting with stream 0. Reserved, 2 bytes. For each stream: Stream size, 4 bytes.
Reserved, 4 bytes. For each stream: Stream page number list, 2 bytes per page, enough to cover above stream size. Version 7 [ edit ] The root stream consists of: Number of streams, 4 bytes. For each stream: Stream page number list, 4 bytes per page, enough to cover above stream size. What Are Pdb Files Stream contents [ edit ] Microsoft tools store different sorts of information in different numbered streams.
Version, 4 bytes. Time date stamp, 4 bytes. Age, 4 bytes. This is the number of times this PDB has been modified since its creation. GUID, 16 bytes. Total length of following names, 4 bytes. Followed by null-terminated character strings. Pdb File Format Explained Stream 2 and stream 4 hold types information.
A header: Version, 4 bytes. Header size, 4 bytes. Size of following data, 4 bytes, to the end of the stream. Hash information: Stream number, 2 bytes with 2 bytes padding. Hash key, 4 bytes. Buckets, 4 bytes.
