Today I had a problem when any program that I am trying to debug in VS2015 takes an age to load all pdb for my program and other programs (about 20 minutes or more for a simple dx12 sample). I could skip them, but actually I really want them to load for various reasons.
This is not a problem with a solution or project, since I get the problem of debugging standard microsoft samples, i.e. dx12 samples posted on github. I believe that all my settings are correct for character settings, here are my settings:
I already tried to clear my character cache and load them again. It also takes age! My character cache is on an SSD, which is working fine. My internet connection is a great way to listen in 19 ms, 45 MB down, 18.7 MB.
One unexpected thing is that messages say that characters cannot be found:
'D3D12Fullscreen.exe' (Win32): loaded "C: \ Windows \ System32 \ ntdll.dll". Cannot find or open the PDB file. 'D3D12Fullscreen.exe' (Win32): Loaded 'C: \ Windows \ System32 \ kernel32.dll'. Cannot find or open PDB file. 'D3D12Fullscreen.exe' (Win32): loaded 'C: \ Windows \ System32 \ KernelBase.dll. Cannot find or open the PDB file.' D3D12Fullscreen.exe '(Win32): loaded' C: \ Windows \ System32 \ user32. dll. Cannot find or open the PDB file. 'D3D12Fullscreen.exe' (Win32): loaded 'C: \ Windows \ System32 \ win32u.dll. Cannot find or open the PDB file.' D3D12Fullscreen.exe '(Win32): loaded' C: \ Windows \ System32 \ dxgi. dll '. Cannot find or open PDB file.' D3D12Fullscreen.exe '(Win32): Loaded' C: \ Windows \ System32 \ D3DCompiler_47.dll '. Cannot find or open PDB file.' D3D12Fullscreen.exe '(Win32) : loaded "C: \ Windows \ System32 \ gdi32.dll. Cannot find or open the PDB file. 'D3D12Fullscreen.exe' (Win32): loaded 'C: \ Windows \ System32 \ msvcrt.dll. Cannot find or open the PDB file.' D3D12Fullscreen.exe '(Win32): loaded' C: \ Windows \ System32 \ gdi32full. dll. Cannot find or open the PDB file.
(it only took 10 minutes to reach the end). This is really strange since you can see that they are all standard DLLs.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you very much in advance.
