Re: How to prepare a kernel driver pdb file for TraceView

You get this error if the PDB file doesn't contain any trace information.

Run tracepdb.exe on your PDB file and see what it says.

I built the toaster\func\feature2 sample and loaded in traceview and it worked fine.


This is the output I got when I ran tracepdb.exe on the PDB file to manually extract the TMF files:

$tracepdb -f toaster.pdb -p tmf
