Error code of vc100.pdb in debug mode

[danielsue]

Hi All,

I recently run into trouble in building intel fortran project in debug mode. The error information is as follows:

Error    2    error code 3 ( can't write file, out of disk, etc.) opening pdb x64\Debug\vc100.pdb  

Error    1    error #31000 corrupt PDB file x64\Debug\vc100.pdb; delete and rebuild; if problem persists, delete and try /Z7 instead

After i delete vc100.pdb and rebuild, the error information is eliminated but a lot of warning information. I tried /Z7 but this does not help.

My compiler is Intel Parallel Studio XE2013 + Visual Studio 2010 Pro

Thanks,

Daniel

Hi All,

To clear, /Z7 works fine when I add it to the fortran/command line/additional options.

I don't know why there shall be vc100.pdb problem as it doesn't exist before.

vc100.pdb contains the debug information for a project built by VS2010. It gets created and added to as the project builds. I have seen some cases where if  there are multiple build threads, the writing of the PDB file gets corrupted - this is handled by MS code. /Z7 would tell the compiler to embed the debug information in the .obj and not use a PDB file.
