SymGetLineFromName function (dbghelp.h)
Locates a source line for the specified module, file name, and line number.
Syntax
BOOL IMAGEAPI SymGetLineFromName(
[in] HANDLE hProcess,
[in, optional] PCSTR ModuleName,
[in, optional] PCSTR FileName,
[in] DWORD dwLineNumber,
[out] PLONG plDisplacement,
[in, out] PIMAGEHLP_LINE Line
);
Parameters
[in] hProcess
A handle to the process that was originally passed to the SymInitialize function.
[in, optional] ModuleName
The name of the module in which a line is to be located.
[in, optional] FileName
The name of the file in which a line is to be located. If the application has more than one source file with this name, be sure to specify a full path.
[in] dwLineNumber
The line number to be located.
[out] plDisplacement
The displacement in bytes from the beginning of the line, or zero.
[in, out] Line
A pointer to an IMAGEHLP_LINE64 structure.
Return value
If the function succeeds, the return value is TRUE.
If the function fails, the return value is FALSE. To retrieve extended error information, call GetLastError.
Remarks
The caller must allocate the Line buffer properly and fill in the required members of the IMAGEHLP_LINE64 structure before calling SymGetLineFromName64.
Before calling this function, ensure that the symbols are initialized correctly by first calling SymInitialize, SymSetOptions, and SymLoadModule64.
This function returns a pointer to a buffer that may be reused by another function. Therefore, be sure to copy the data returned to another buffer immediately.
All DbgHelp functions, such as this one, are single threaded. Therefore, calls from more than one thread to this function will likely result in unexpected behavior or memory corruption. To avoid this, you must synchronize all concurrent calls from more than one thread to this function.
To call the Unicode version of this function, define DBGHELP_TRANSLATE_TCHAR. SymGetLineFromNameW64 is defined as follows in Dbghelp.h.
BOOL
IMAGEAPI
SymGetLineFromNameW64(
__in HANDLE hProcess,
__in_opt PCWSTR ModuleName,
__in_opt PCWSTR FileName,
__in DWORD dwLineNumber,

__inout PIMAGEHLP_LINEW64 Line
);
#ifdef DBGHELP_TRANSLATE_TCHAR
#define SymGetLineFromName64 SymGetLineFromNameW64

This function supersedes the SymGetLineFromName function. For more information, see Updated Platform Support. SymGetLineFromName is defined as follows in Dbghelp.h.
#if !defined(_IMAGEHLP_SOURCE_) && defined(_IMAGEHLP64)
