Return Value
If successful, returns S_OK; otherwise returns an error code.
Remarks
The string szSymbolSearchPath is a list of one or more paths, separated by semicolons, to search for symbols. These paths can be a local path, a UNC-style path, or a URL. These paths can also be a mix of different types. If the path is UNC (for example, \\Symserver\Symbols), then the debug engine should determine if the path is to a symbol server and should be able to load symbols from that server, caching them in the path specified by szSymbolCachePath.
The symbol path can also contain one or more cache locations. Caches are listed in priority order, with the highest priority cache first, and separated by * symbols. For example:
\\symbols\symbols;\\someotherserver\symbols;c:\symbols\httpsymbols*http://msdl.microsoft.com
The IDebugEngine3::LoadSymbols method performs the actual load of the symbols.
