Author Loaded 'ntdll.dll', no matching symbolic information found.

I'm writing a small program. It compiled and ran. But when trying
to debug by select "build/start debug/go", I got the following
error messages. What gives?


Loaded 'ntdll.dll', no matching symbolic information found.
Loaded 'D:\WINDOWS\system32\kernel32.dll', no matching symbolic
information found.
Loaded 'D:\WINDOWS\system32\wsock32.dll', no matching symbolic
information found.
Loaded 'D:\WINDOWS\system32\ws2_32.dll', no matching symbolic
information found.
Loaded 'D:\WINDOWS\system32\msvcrt.dll', no matching symbolic
information found.
Loaded 'D:\WINDOWS\system32\ws2help.dll', no matching symbolic
information found.
Loaded 'D:\WINDOWS\system32\advapi32.dll', no matching symbolic
information found.
Loaded 'D:\WINDOWS\system32\rpcrt4.dll', no matching symbolic
information found.
The thread 0xDD8 has exited with code 0 (0x0).

Nothing really - all you're seeing are informational messages saying
that the debugger can't find any debug information for those system
DLLs - all of which is perfectly normal unless you expect to have them
for some reason.

You can actually download the symbol files for those system dlls from
microsoft.

Probably the easiest way for you to get symbols from MS is to set the
following ENV variable.

_NT_SYMPOL_PATH=srv*D:\Symbols\MS*h
ttp://msdl.microsoft.com/download/symbols


D:\Symbols\MS is the path on your local machine that will hold the
downloaded symbol files. I believe you have to restart VS in order for the
ENV variable to take effect.

See the WinDbg documentation for more information on _NT_SYMBOL_PATH. The
same information may be somewhere else as well, but I don't know where.
http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/devto...ng/default.mspx

You can also download entire symbol packages from the above link
(_NT_SYMBOL_PATH not required then), however using the http symbol server
allows VS to download only the symbols it needs.
