NOTE: I'm working on a new and more robust parser based on the Kaitai struct language. You can find the project at the following link: https://github.com/smx-smx/kaitai-pdb The new parser is probably not as efficient or convenient as a hand-written parser, but the newly gained knowledge and fixes could be eventually added back to PDBSharp.

C# Library and Tools to read Program DataBase (PDB) files created by MSVC

The library supports reading:

  • PDB 7.0 files, also called "DS"
  • PDB 2.0 files, also called "JG"
  • PDB 1.0 files, also called "JG". They contain types information (TPI) only.

Writing PDB files is not implemented yet. You will find some code around the repository, but it's not usable yet at this stage.

The main goal is to create a stable PDB Reader first, then write unit tests to ensure the reader works properly. Writing these unit tests will lead to the creation of a corresponding writer to generate PDB files that the reader can work on
