I have build application using .NET 4.0, WinForms and DevExpress Winforms components.
I have a bug that I cannot reproduce using simple “step by step” method.
I am trying to use core dumps to debug this issue.
I can get core dump and view exception nicely inside visual studio using
adplus -crash -pn Main.exe -o c:\output -y C:\pdb -fullonfirst
However, this seems to be working only with debug build, with release build I am getting message “No source available, No symbols are loaded for any call stack frame. The source code cannot be displayed”
How can I get useful information using release build?
Are there any best practices I should use with this problem?
Switch to the Release build, Project + Properties, Build tab, scroll down, Advanced. Change the “Debug Info” setting to Full. Be sure to change the /y argument, these .pdbs need to be stored separate from the debug versions.
