Module and Symbol Viewing

  • Article

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

**Note   **If you use the Windows CE Debug Shell tool (Shell.exe) to download an OS image for debugging, the kernel debugger is started from within the IDE after the download is completed. Because Shell.exe was started before the debugger starts, information obtained from Cesh.exe is not available to populate several debugger windows. Instead, Shell.exe receives this information. In the IDE, 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.

In addition, the Break button on the Debug toolbar and the Break item on the Debug menu are disabled when the IDE is opened from Shell.exe. To put the debugger in break state from Shell.exe, you must type the break command in the Shell.exe command window.
