Question by SaSha_K · Jan 04, 2017 at 07:52 AM · editordebugpluginsnodesymbols

How to generate a .pdb (debug symbols) for 3rd party code?

I've loaded an open source Node editor pluggin for Unity from here.

My problem: code of this pluggin have not any .pdb, so I cannot debug.

What I've checked/tried:

  • My solution configuration in Visual studio is set to "Debug".

  • I've downloaded & tried to use "master" & "develop" branch of this plugin from git.

How can I get/generate a .pdb for this code to be able to debug it?

PS: (May be it's relevant to my issue) I've noticed, that only few of .cs files are shown in Solution explorer in Visual studio:

SolutionExplorer without any .cs files from Framework folder

for example, none of framework files are present in Solution explorer:

these .cs files in Framework folder are present in OS file explorer

I'll not accept this answer, 'cos it doesn't actually answer my initial question. But it solved my particular problem, so I post it:

My actual problem was an inability to debug code because of non-working breakpoints with message: "The breakpoint will not currently be hit. No symbols have been loaded for this document.": non-working breakpoint demonstration

And it was solved by simple using "Debug \ Attach Unity debugger" instead of familar to me "Debug \ Attach to Process" in Visual Studio =)
