Getting symbols from a minidump obtained from a js shell in Windows

[Gary Kwong]

Hello,

I was able to generate a minidump by getting a js shell to crash on
Windows 7, but I am unable to get symbols for the minidump during
post-processing.

I tried passing the following to cdb.exe (obtained from Debugging Tools
for Windows):

(1) path to minidump
(2) path to js shell
(3) path to objdir directory containing generated.pdb and mozjs.pdb

but this did not work. (no symbols were shown, except seemingly
illogical ones involving ntdll.dll and a host of other .dll files)

Neither did replacing (3) with the path to objdir/shell containing
generated.pdb and js.pdb .

Note that the js shell does not have Breakpad, so will not be able to
use Breakpad to obtain symbols. I'd also like to refrain from getting
symbols from Mozilla's symbol server remotely, since the js shell was
compiled locally, logically the symbols should also be available locally
as well.

May I know if anyone has gotten this to work?

Regards,
Gary
