Viewing Modules and Symbols (Windows CE 5.0)

Send Feedback

The Modules and Symbols window is a dockable window that displays the name, address, status, and path for each module loaded in memory. As for any debugger window, only one instance of this window can be open at a time.

The information displayed in the Modules and Symbols window varies, depending on the state of the target device, the services running on the device, and the kernel debugger.

To avoid debugging with incorrect symbol information, Platform Builder (PB) strictly ensures that the timestamp from the module in the bin file and the timestamp from the module in the flat release directory are the same.

To determine if PB detected a timestamp mismatch, examine the module entry in the Modules window. If PB found a mismatch, symbols will not be loaded and a Timestamp Mismatch message will appear. You can synchronize the timestamps by running a make image.

The Modules and Symbols window does not display information while the debugger is running. Instead, it displays a Data Unavailable message. However, when the debugger is in break state, this window displays the appropriate information.
