how do I specify the source code directory in VS when looking at the call stack of a memory dump?


I am analyzing a .dmp file that was created and I have a call stack which gives me a lot of info. But I'd like to double click on the call stack and have it bring me to the source code.

I can right click on the call stack and select symbol settings.. where I can put the location to the PDB. But there is no option for the source code directory.


Solution

  • The source code directory is unfortunately hard coded into the pdb's however if you know the folders required you can use windows concept of symbolic links, junctions.

    I use the tool Junction Link Magic
