Expand description
The pdb create parses Microsoft PDB (Program Database) files. PDB files contain debugging
information produced by most compilers that target Windows, including information about symbols,
types, modules, and so on.
§Usage
PDB files are accessed via the pdb::PDB object.
§Example
let file = std::fs::File::open("fixtures/self/foo.pdb")?;
let mut pdb = pdb::PDB::open(file)?;
let symbol_table = pdb.global_symbols()?;
let address_map = pdb.address_map()?;
let mut symbols = symbol_table.iter();
while let Some(symbol) = symbols.next()? {
match symbol.parse() {
Ok(pdb::SymbolData::Public(data)) if data.function => {
// we found the location of a function!
let rva = data.offset.to_rva(&address_map).unwrap_or_default();
println!("{} is {}", rva, data.name);
}
_ => {}
}
}
