Map File Explorer
When developing programs, programs crashing is a hazard all developers face. No matter how hard you try, and how good your quality assurance is, sooner or later a bug will get past your own testing standards and end up revealing itself to a customer. Often when this happens the customer does not have the source code, debugging symbols or any other data. The only things the customer can give you are a stack trace and the load address of any DLLs that have been loaded.
The Map File Explorer was written to simplify the task of the following tasks:
- Reading a map file.
- Allowing the user to examine the map file symbols.
- Finding the nearest function and line number to a given address.
- Finding the address, file and line, given the symbol name.
- Allowing symbol addresses to be calculated, taking into account the load address of the DLL.
This program relies on the mapFileDLL. Some parts of this program are not complete.
