I am building a Symbols service, and I want to be able to print the struct variables and their offsets. I am loading the needed pdb, and trying to find a struct that fits the given mask. For example, I want to get details about the struct _RTL_CRITICAL_SECTION
.
While using windbg
, I use the command dt MSVCP120!_RTL_CRITICAL_SECTION
and I get the struct information (exactly what I want). But, when I search the symbol using my code:
SymEnumSymbols(GetCurrentProcess(), base_addr,"MSVCP120!_RTL_CRITICAL_SECTION", enum_symbols_callback, NULL);
BOOL CALLBACK symbol_processor::enum_symbols_callback(PSYMBOL_INFO pSymInfo, ULONG SymbolSize, PVOID UserContext)
{
printf("Name = %s\n", pSymInfo->Name);
return TRUE;
}
Nothing is printed.. Meaning, there is no match for the mask..
This does work when the mask is a function (for example "MSVCP120!std::tr2::sys::_Open_dir"
)
So, how do I get the symbol of a struct..?
Thanks!
