PDB:filename

  
## Remarks  
 where:  
  
 *filename*  
 A user-specified name for the program database (PDB) that the linker creates. It replaces the default name.  
  
## Remarks  
 By default, when [/DEBUG](../Topic/-DEBUG%20\(Generate%20Debug%20Info\).md) is specified, the linker creates a program database (PDB) which holds debugging information. The default file name for the PDB has the base name of the program and the extension .pdb.  
  
 Use /PDB:*filename* to specify the name of the PDB file. If /DEBUG is not specified, the /PDB option is ignored.  
  
 A PDB file can be up to 2GB.  
  
 For more information, see [.pdb Files as Linker Input](../Topic/.Pdb%20Files%20as%20Linker%20Input.md).
