/PDBPATH

/PDBPATH[:VERBOSE] filename

Parameters

filename
The name of the .dll or .exe file for which you want to find the matching .pdb file.

:VERBOSE
(Optional) Reports all directories where an attempt was made to locate the .pdb file.

Remarks

/PDBPATH searches your computer along the same paths that the debugger searches for a .pdb file and reports which, if any, .pdb files correspond to the file specified in filename.

When using the Visual Studio debugger, you may experience a problem because the debugger is using a .pdb file for a different version of the file you're debugging.

/PDBPATH will search for .pdb files along the following paths:

  • Check the location where the executable resides.
  • Check the location of the PDB written into the executable. This is usually the location at the time the image was linked.
  • Check along the search path configured in the Visual Studio IDE.
  • Check along the paths in the _NT_SYMBOL_PATH and _NT_ALT_SYMBOL_PATH environment variables.
  • Check in the Windows directory.
