  • 0

When I try to watch some variables in a static library linked with current startup project I receive this error: 

CXX0017: Error: symbol not found

I’ve tried to rebuild the project/close IDE but I have same error. I can use breakpoints/step/other features.

Do you have any idea why is this happening? Maybe some weird compiler flags or else…

Edit: Only some variables can’t be viewed in debugger! In general local variables.

    please check whether pdb file have loaded properly from correct
    project folder, you can select Debug -> Windows -> Modules, on the
    Modules window, right click the symbol item, select Symbol Load
    Information, from the pop up window, you can see whether the pdb file
