Microsoft.DiaSymReader.Converter

Converts between Windows PDB and Portable PDB formats.

Pre-release builds are available on MyGet gallery: https://dotnet.myget.org/Gallery/symreader-converter.

Usage

The converter is available as a command line tool as well as a library. Both are distributed as NuGet packages.

Pdb2Pdb

Pdb2Pdb.exe <dll/exe path> [/pdb <path>] [/out <path>] [/extract]

Switch	Description
`/pdb <path>`	Path to the PDB to convert. If not specified explicitly, the PDB referenced by or embedded in the DLL/EXE is used.
`/out <path>`	Output PDB path.
`/extract`	Extract PDB embedded in the DLL/EXE.
`/sourcelink`	When converting to Windows PDB do not convert SourceLink to `srcsrv` format. By default both SourceLink and srcsrv are included in the converted PDB.
`/verbose`	Print detailed diagnostics.
`/srcsvrvar <name>=<value>`	Add specified variable to srcsvr stream. Only applicable when converting to Windows PDB and `/sourcelink` is not specified.

/extract and /pdb are mutually exclusive.

Example: Create and build .NET Core Standard library and convert its Portable PDB to Windows PDB to be published to Symbol Store.

> dotnet new classlib
> dotnet build
> cd bin\Debug\netstandard2.0
> mkdir SymStore
> Pdb2Pdb MyProject.dll /out SymStore\MyProject.pdb
