How can I get the GUID from a PDB file?

问题

Does anyone know how to get the GUID from a PDB file?

I'm using Microsoft's Debug Interface Access SDK

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/f0756hat.aspx

and getting E_PDB_INVALID_SIG when passing in the GUID i expect when trying to load the PDB.

I'd just like to know the GUID of the PDB so I can be certain that it's mismatching and not just a PDB that's perhaps corrupted somehow.

Is there a tool that can do this? I've tried dia2dump and dumpbin, but with no joy...

Many thanks,

thoughton.

There is a Code Project tool called PDB Inspector that should be able to help you. Or if you need to do this programatically essentially you call:

IDiaDataSource::LoadDataFromPdb
IDiaDataSource::openSession
IDiaSession::get_global_scope
IDiaSymbol::get_guid

I would use the dbghelp symbol APIs. If all you want is information about the PDB, you can use chkmatch, or heck, just load the dll/exe into WinDbg and use !sym noisy, !lmi or !chksym.

Fixing the PDB to match is a different story! chkmatch can do some of the work, but cannot make age differences match, it only can do timestamps and GUID signatures.

an introduction to DIA and its relation to DbgHelp along with a C++ sample. Which is basically the article I wrote after the one mentioned by Paul Arnold.
