Description

From ingo_tho...@gmx.de on June 10, 2011 02:57:41

In our company, we archive map (rather than pdb files) files for our applications to track down crashes. Hence, I wrote a little program to post-process the Dr. Memory results file to generate object names for call stacks.

Maybe this could be included into Dr. Memory?
