Visual studio unable to load symbol file for libmwsimulink.dll

3 views (last 30 days)
I am using Visual studio premium 2010 for profiling my code with Matlab. The code is built using the visual studio.ouput of the build is .mexw32 file.The dll(.mexw32) is getting instrumented and the profiling is done successfully. ".vsp" is created when the profiling is done successfully and the visual studio does the analysis automatically. While doing the analysis the tool is trying to load symbols for libmwsiumlink.dll. as it cannot find the pdb file for libmwsimulink.dll the analysis is being failed.could you please let me know how can this be solved. i have attached the screenshot of output when the report analysis is run with command window.

Failing to load the symbols for simulink is normal we do not ship symbols for MathWorks dlls. Are you sure that the command failed and produced no output? Visual studio 2010 is now quite old can you upgrade to a newer version with an improved profiler?

Thanks Philip.
The command is failing and seen as Analysis failed. ".vsps" file gets created as output of the command. When I try to open the ".vsps" file it gets opened in visual studio and tries again to load the symbol files and the tool crashes. I am worried that i cannot use another version of Visual studio for profiling. is there any possibility to change the settings such that it should not try to load symbols file for libmwsimulink.dll.
