[Mono-list] Line numbers in exceptions

Thanks for the information.  IMO, that would be a good tip to put in the
mono debugging page (http://www.mono-project.com/Debugging).

Little question : Using the mdb I created with pdb2mdb, I now get the line
numbers, but the offset is different and the column is 0.  Is it normal?

Also, they say on the debugging page that using the --debug command line
option will result in slower execution.  How much slower is this to use that
option?  Have you ever made benchmarks for this?

Thanks,

Jonathan

You may use this tool to convert pdbs to mdbs:
