The stack trace file will list each item on the stack as an address. A utility included with the dtSearch Engine, StackTrace.exe, can be used to convert these addresses to symbol names. To use StackTrace.exe, you will need a .map file for your program. For example, if your program is MySearch.exe, you will need a map file named MySearch.map. The Visual C++ linker does not generate map files by default so you will need to enable this option to get a map file. Also, the map file is only valid for the particular build for which it was generated. If you modify and rebuild the program, a new map file will be needed. Once you have a map file and the text file created by dtssInstallCrashDiagnostics, you can get the symbols as follows:
