Re: Remote debugging a mixed DLL

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance



Hi Jeffrey,

This is a typo in the first post. The problem was about the managed part of
the symbols loading. Because in native code symbols are embedded in the DLL,
I did not paid attention to the PDB file that is produced with a mixed
assembly.

Anyway, thanks for your feedback, It's always a pleasure to submit questions
in the newsgroups.

Best regards,
Olivier.

Hi Olivier,

Glad to see you resolved the problem yourself. It seems that it is really
the symbol loading problem.

A little question: in your first post, you posted the following problem:
I'm still unable to set breakpoint in Native code.

But, in your second reply, you stated:
Now breakpoints in managed code are working fine

So, can you confirm if your problem is the managed or native breakpoint
not
working? Do you still need any help over this issue? Thanks.

Yes, VS2005 debugger provides much better support over symbol loading. In
"Modules" window, once you find one module's symbol is not loaded, you may
right click this row and choose "Symbol Loading Information..." menu item.
The popup dialog will reveal all the symbol probing paths for this module.
Then you may add another symbol path or copying the assembly symbol file
to
the one of the existing probing path.

If you need further help, please feel free to post, thanks.

Best regards,
Jeffrey Tan
