Struct pdb_addr2line::ContextPdbData

pub struct ContextPdbData<'s> { /* fields omitted */ }

Allows to easily create a Context directly from a pdb::PDB.

let mut pdb = pdb::PDB::open(stream)?;
let context_data = pdb_addr2line::ContextPdbData::try_from_pdb(&mut pdb)?;
let context = context_data.make_context()?;

Implementation note: It would be nice if a Context could be created from a PDB directly, without going through an intermediate ContextPdbData object. However, there doesn’t seem to be an easy way to do this, due to certain lifetime dependencies: The Context object wants to store certain objects inside itself (mostly for caching) which have a lifetime dependency on pdb::ModuleInfo, so the ModuleInfo has to be owned outside of the Context. So the ContextPdbData object acts as that external ModuleInfo owner.

Implementations

impl<'s> ContextPdbData<'s>

pub fn try_from_pdb<S: Source<'s> + 's>(pdb: &mut PDB<'s, S>) -> Result<Self>

Create a ContextPdbData from a PDB. This parses many of the PDB streams and stores them in the ContextPdbData. Most importantly, it builds a list of all the ModuleInfo objects in the PDB.

pub fn make_context(&self) -> Result<Context<'_, 's, '_>>

Create a Context. This uses the default TypeFormatter settings.

pub fn make_context_with_formatter_flags(
    &self,
    flags: TypeFormatterFlags
) -> Result<Context<'_, 's, '_>>

Create a Context, using the specified TypeFormatter flags.
