Working on 0.3 release of source server is all about getting the pdb files gathered up when symbolstore.py is made and then feeding them to pdbstr.exe. I’ve copied the binary into the mozilla/toolkit/crashreporter/tools folder where symbolstore.py is called and I’ve spent the last 4 hours or so playing around with python.
So far I have learned this:
1. THIS IS WRONG, PLEASE IGNORE That I can call pdbstr.exe on an unindexed pdb file and it will in fact read and generate a data block that has all the information needed to set up the cvs cmd calls – see this output from calling pdbstr -r -p:thepdbfile -s:srcsrv > thepdbfile.stream ** for corrections see next post **
2. The next part would be to write this block back to the pdb file i think – so that it’s available to the source server
This is what calling pdbstr -r gets me:

So the next goal is to successfully keep a list in symbolstore.py of all the pdb so that pdbstr can be called on them.
