Okay, can you give me some pointers how to make it work then? I
have VS8 sp1, have downloaded the corresponding debug package from
the OSG website and have a really small test application that
forces OSG to use some freed memory. If I build (in debug mode of
course) and then run the test from VS with F5 it nicely catches
the error, but in the stack trace none of the OSG dlls show any
symbols...
I think the problem is that OSG is using /Zi instead of /Z7, but at
the same time, the .pdb files aren't being distributed in the packages.
Right, that is what I originally suspected. So is there any point to
the debug packages *in their current form*? As 2.8.2 is probably
released pretty soon it might be a good point in time to fix this?
My guess is that the extra size comes from optimizations being
turned off (the default in Debug mode), but I don't make the
packages, so I'm not sure.
Is there any way to test for a given dll if there is debug
information in it, e.g. with some MSVC tool?

Hi Paul,
Heeej :)
Does this help?
"%VCINSTALLDIR%\bin\dumpbin.exe" /PDBPATH:VERBOSE osg55-osgd.dll
Well, not really, as it merely seems to check if there is a .pdb file
available that matches the given dll (which are not found for the dll's
in the OSG debug package). However, the option /HEADERS produces more
interesting results as it lists a "Debug directories", which for
osg55-osgd.dll refers to a .pdb file
d:\Prog\Libs\OpenSceneGraph\bin\osg55-osgd.pdb. So that's probably the
location on the original package creator's system (whoever that was).
So this indeed seems to confirm that the dll's in the OSG VS8sp1 debug
package on the website do not contain debug information for OSG itself,
but can merely be used to build an application in debug mode.
