Does anyone have experience debugging Delphi built applications at the
Windows symbol level? I'm looking into "Debugging Tools for Windows",
WinDbg, Windows Symbol Server, etc. But I'm not sure how to proceed
with a Delphi application.
I'm assuming that any symbol or debug info generated by Delphi will be
useless to WinDbg. Perhaps it could parse a .MAP file?
In particular, we have users having Access Violations in NTDLL.DLL.
I'm fairly confident that our application is causing the Access
Violation, but I don't have a starting point to go on. The user
patterns seems to be quite different and only a small percentage of our
users experience these errors.
My thought is that setting up "Debugging Tools for Windows" and using
the Windows Symbol Server on the workstations having the issue might
give some insight. At least identifying the Win32 API/RTL calls where
the AVs are occurring.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
