MapFileBrowser can be used from the command line as well as with the GUI.

 

The command line options allow you to view debug information that is in a MAP file, and optionally highlight a symbol at a specified offset.

 

/fileName

 Specifies the module to load. This is typically a .exe or a .dll.

 

 /fileName path-to-executable

 

 Example: /fileName e:\om\c\test\release\test.exe

 

/offset

 Specifies an offset inside the executable. MapFileBrowser will highlight the symbol that occupies this location.

 

 Typically this offset will be calculated from a crash location.

 

 For example:

 

If a DLL is loaded at 0x00400000 and a crash happens at 0x00420192, the offset is calculated by subtracting the DLL load address from the crash address.

 

That is: 0x00420192 - 0x00400000, which gives 0x00020192.

 

The offset is 0x00020192.

 

 The offset must be specified in hexadecimal with a leading 0x.

 

 /offset value

 

 Example: /offset 0x00020192
