- NovemberWhiskey 6y agoWith the Microsoft tooling, you debug a crash dump and your IDE automatically pulls in the symbol data from your symbol server and then automatically checks out the appropriate revisions from your config management system, because the references are embedded into the symbol files at build time. It’s a much better mechanism than anything I’ve looked at in the Linux space (caveat: I have not been developing C++ for a while). I was so impressed I started looking at what it would take to implement for the gcc/gdb toolchain but discovered Microsoft held a patent and gave up.
