Symbol Paths

Scroll Prev Top Next More

The Symbol Paths tab allows you to specify which directories VM Validator should look in for source PDB files.

 

The default settings are shown below:

File locations

 

Sometimes the information VM Validator has access to consists of the file name, but not the directory.

 

When this happens VM Validator scans a set of directories that it knows about in order to find the file.

 

The options below allow you to specify those directories that should be searched for PDB files.

 

If a file can't be found, you'll get prompted for its location, but you can control this below as well.

 

 

Manually adding path type directories

 

Once you have chosen your path type you can modify the list of files for each path type in the following ways:

 

Add instructionStep appends a row to the directory list instructionStep enter the directory path

 

Edit a directory path by double clicking the entry. The usual controls apply for removing list items:

 

Remove instructionStep removes selected items from the list

 

Remove all instructionStep clears the list

 
 

Alternatively, press b_del to delete selected items, and b_ctrl + b_a to select all items in the list first.

 

 

Reset All - Resets all global settings, not just those on the current page.

 

Currently, the four checkbox items at the bottom of this page are not reset as part of the global settings.
