How can I get a full call stack for a c++ application developed with Visual Studio 2005? I would like to have a full call stack including the code in the system libraries.
Do I have to change some settings in Visual Studio, or do I have to install additional software?
Get debug information for all project dependencies. This is specified under the ‘Configuration Properties -> C/C++ -> General’ section of the project properties.
On the menu, go to ‘Tools -> Options’ then select ‘Debugging -> Symbols’.
Add a new symbol location (the folder icon) that points to Microsoft’s free symbol server “symsrvsymsrv.dllc:\symbols*http://msdl.microsoft.com/downloads/symbols“
Fill out the ‘cache symbols’ field with some place locally so you don’t go to the internet all the time.
