Presently I'm running BOINC v7.0.64 I've configured an environmental var, i.e., _NT_SYMBOL_PATH=srv*F:\Symbols2*http://msdl.microsoft.com/download/symbols I notice that in the BOINC_Data/symbols sub-folder exist several sub-folders, e.g., advapi32.pdb, dbghelp.pdb, dnsapi.pdb, etc. and each of these sub-folders can be found also in F:\Symbols2. Its the GUID lookin' sub-folders within each PDB folder that are different betwixt BOINC & SYMBOLS2.
2. why the discrepency in the versioning between the SymStores (inferred from the the modified dates and recent, albeit different, create dates)? 3. if I create a NTFS reparse point, i.e., junction / symbolic-link, of F:\Symbols2 as BOINC_Data\symbols, will it still duplicate the PDB folders within differing GUID lookin' sub-folders? 4. can I incorporate BOINC symstore like so:_NT_SYMBOL_PATH=srv*F:\Symbols2*http://boinc.berkeley.edu/symstore/*http://msdl.microsoft.com/download/symbols (or do I need to use a semicolon delimiter between the two server URL's)?

I guess this is a real stumper, eh? |

Forwarded to development. I hadn't done that earlier as I wasn't much around. And the developers don't read here, unless I ask them to. And even then they may not read here. |

Windows Update updates those files and the run-time debugger downloads the new PDB file to go with the updated executable. ----- Rom BOINC Development Team, U.C. Berkeley My Blog |
