I'm writing a c++ application using cmake / conan / boost on MSVC

I have successfully built an application that print stacktraces using:

auto frames = boost::stacktrace::stacktrace().as_vector();

Output:

Stack Trace:

This works great on the machine I compiled on. I can even move/cmake install the application and dll's to a different location on the same machine and The stack trace still works fine.

However if I run on a different windows machine i get the following output:

This is with all my application pdb files present along with the executable.

Is there a missing system dependancy that also needs to be distributed?

• Solution was to update /PDBALTPATH to an explicit pdb path. – T. Cash Commented Mar 26 at 23:36

My solution was to use

target_link_options(${TARGET_NAME} PRIVATE "/PDBALTPATH:$<TARGET_PROPERTY:${TARGET_NAME},NAME>.pdb")

To specify the link options on the target to use the full path to the pdb file.
