# gdb-msvc
|
||||
|
||||
gdb-msvc is a series of patches for GDB (and bfd) for easier debugging of Microsoft Visual C++ (MSVC) binaries.
|
||||
|
||||
## Main features
|
||||
|
||||
The main features in this patchset are:
|
||||
|
||||
* MSVC demangling support (using [LLVM](https://llvm.org/))
|
||||
* PDB debug symbol loading (using [radare2](https://github.com/radareorg/radare2)'s libr)
|
||||
|
||||
(Note: we can't currently use LLVM for PDB loading as LLVM doesn't yet expose its PDB functions as a C API and bfd is written in C, not C++.)
|
||||
|
||||
## Building
|
||||
|
||||
* `mkdir build && cd build`
|
||||
* `../configure --target=i686-w64-mingw32 <other configure flags>`
|
||||
* `make` (and `make install`)
|
||||
|
||||
Packages:
|
||||
|
||||
* Arch Linux: [gdb-msvc-git](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/gdb-msvc-git/) (AUR)
