Mapping an DIA error code into a human friendly string

Hi,

I am working on a project to handle Symbols files.
Sometimes, DIA returns error code (e.g. E_PDB_FORMAT, ...).

Is there any DIA API to translate this into a string?

Best regards,

Hi Marc,
Sorry but I'm pretty sure that the descriptions for these HRESULTS are not stored anywhere. They're certainly not in a string table in msdia90.dll, and they're not part of the HRESULT string table for the .NET Framework in mscorrc.dll. So I guess the best you can do is mine MSDN ;-).

Hi Rick,

As a matter of fact, miningis what I'have done.
In my own wrapper, I keep a private map of some of these...

I dont recall there is but http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hw66s39b.aspxmentions that this error means "Attempted to access a file with an obsolete format."

Hi,

thanks for the link.

Actually the question was not about the meaning of this special error id BUT, in general, is there an API which converts/maps DIA related error code into human readable form?

Thanks in advance for any help.
