symbol lookup issue on XPE?

Hi,

Is there any known issues on XPE in using dbghelp.dll for looking up symbol
by address? Our application works great on Windows 2000 Server, but not on
XPE (SymGetLineFromAddr64 returns "invalid address").

If I copy dbghelp.dll (version 6.0.7.0) from a Windows 2000 Server machine,
to my XPE machine (which originally had version 5.1.2600.1106) symbol lookup
works fine.

Is there known issues in dbghelp.dll for XPE? Or has the API changed?

Thanks,

/ Hannes.

Hannes,

Sorry for cliche reply but XPe would work the same way as XP Pro when it comes to the binaries like dbghelp.
In other words, are you able to repro the same issue on XP Pro?

Windows 200 Server is definitely not a good test as it is not the platform that has been componentized.

I used http://support.microsoft.com/dllhelp to figure out the exact products
we've got the good vs. bad dbghelp.dll from:

BAD dbghelp.dll: version 5.1.2600.1106
* shipped in XP SP1 -and also what we found in XPE

GOOD dbghelp.dll: version 6.0.7.0
* no match in the DLL database! Whare did we get this? XP Pro, but no SP?


To answer your question - we (would) find the same issue on XP SP1, since
they use the same dll. Our version matches the version shipped with XP SP1.
