ReSharper 2021.3 Help

Explore PDB contents

ReSharper helps you explore assembly PDB contents by generating a readable XML file, which contains:

  • source file names,

  • mapping between IL offsets and source lines,

  • names of local variables,

  • entry point method if present,

  • import scopes,

  • a type of PDB file (Windows/Portable/Embedded),

  • PDB signature,

  • source server info: SourceLink/SrcSrv.

To study PDB contents associated with an assembly, right-click it in the Assembly Explorer window and choose Show PDB content. ReSharper will generate an XML file and open it in the editor.
