Hello,
When compiling a poject, I can specify /FR to create browse file and /fd to create the pdb file. What's the difference between .sbr file and .pdb file ? when will we use .sbr file?
Thanks,
Jazz
The pdb file is the symbol table, it lists addresses and type for each symbol. It is intended only to be used by the debugger.
The browse file contains logical (not address) information about symbols and their relationships and cross references. It is intended to produce displays for your use when investigating the code.
