I think that specifying the relative path wouldn't change anything since that the .obj files contains the full pdb path (and .lib file is just set of the .obj files). > Having a default, absolute > path for the pdb is not working for us and for everybody who > chooses to move the library directory around. I've tried the MSVC 7.1 and MSVC 8 and found that if the .pdb file located in the directory with corresponding .lib file (even if they are moved from the original directory) the debug information was found (I haven't got the linker warnings about inaccessible debug information).
