0.1 Release: - updated
* get the microsoft scripts to work adding source code to my local pdb files
* so that the debugger can access the source code from being pointed to my server
 
=== Updates ===
So far I have set up a server and configured it to serve up PDB files. This involved running a little script to allow the MIME type for pdb files which is application/octet-stream.
 
I ran <code>make buildsymbols</code> on my local build of minefield and successfully generated a whole ton of symbol files. These were copied to my server and I have successfully loaded them into Visual Studio when debugging.
 
Right now the biggest barrier is a lack of information about the Microsoft Source Server - which comes with support for several version control systems but whose CVS version is apparently known to be potentially unstable. I have made one attempt at indexing the symbol files, it was unsuccessful.
