DefineParameter Method Defines a single parameter in the current method.
DefineSequencePoints Method Defines a group of sequence points within the current method.
GetDebugInfo Method Returns the information necessary for a compiler to write the debug directory entry in the portable executable (PE) file header.
Initialize Method Sets the metadata emitter interface with which this writer will be associated, and sets the output file name to which the debugging symbols will be written.
Initialize2 Method Sets the metadata emitter interface with which this writer will be associated, sets the output file name to which the debugging symbols will be written, and sets the final location of the program database (PDB) file.
OpenMethod Method Opens a method into which symbol information is emitted.
OpenNamespace Method Opens a new namespace.
OpenScope Method Opens a new lexical scope in the current method.
RemapToken Method Notifies the symbol writer that a metadata token has been remapped as the metadata was emitted.
SetMethodSourceRange Method Specifies the true start and end of a method within a source file.
