PublishSymbols@1 - Index sources and publish symbols v1 task

Use this task to index your source code and publish your symbols to a file share or Azure Artifacts symbol server.

Indexing your source code allows you to use your symbol files to debug your application on a machine other than the one you used to build your application. For example, you can debug an application built by a build agent from a dev machine that does not have the source code.

Symbol servers enable your debugger to automatically retrieve the correct symbol files without knowing product names, build numbers, or package names.

Inputs

SymbolsPath - Path to publish symbols
string.

Specifies the path to the symbol store share. If this value is not set, source indexing will occur, but symbols will not be published.


SearchPattern - Search pattern
string. Required. Default value: **/bin/**/*.pdb.

Specifies the pattern used to discover the PDB files to publish.


SymbolsFolder - Path to symbols folder
string.

Specifies the path to the folder that is searched for symbol files. The default is $(Build.SourcesDirectory). Otherwise, specify a rooted path, for example: $(Build.BinariesDirectory)/MyProject.


SkipIndexing - Skip indexing
boolean. Default value: false.

Specifies whether to skip injecting source server information into the PDB files.


TreatNotIndexedAsWarning - Warn if not indexed
boolean. Default value: false.

Specifies whether to warn if sources are not indexed for a PDB file. Otherwise, the messages are logged as normal output.


SymbolsMaximumWaitTime - Max wait time (min)
string.

The number of minutes to wait before failing the step.
