I have an *.exe project that was written in one solution under vs2005 and i have a DLL file
that the *.exe project is using.
the problem is that the dll was written in adiffrent solution and when i try to make attach
to the *.exe file (after i run it) from the dll solution in order to debug the dll , i get no symbols are loaded error (and i cant debug the dll) altough symbols were loaded (i can see the *.pdb files that created after i compiled the dll solution) .
What can I do?
First check the Output window, it will show whether or not it could find debugging symbols for the DLL when it got loaded. Next, switch to Debug + Windows + Modules, right-click your DLL and choose “Symbol load information”. That shows where the debugger looked for .pdb files for the DLL. Ensure the .pdb is located in one of these paths.
If the problem is not getting source code for the DLL instead of missing .pdb files, first delete the hidden .suo file in the solution directory. The next time you debug into the DLL, Visual Studio will again prompt you to provide the path to the source code file. Don’t press Escape, enter the path. Another thing you can do is right-click the solution in the Solution Explorer window, Properties, Common Properties, Debug Source Files. Add the path to the DLL source code directory.
