Mono(mdb2ppdb)

🎀 NAME 🎀

okay so bestie, welcome to the Mono(mdb2ppdb) manual page. The main character is mdb2ppdb, and it does exactly this: Convert Mono's debug file format (MDB) to Portable Program Database (PPDB) file formatn.

(and yes, formatn is literally on the page — typo canon, not me 💅)

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

It’s giving two file paths and zero drama:

mdb2ppdb input.mdb output.ppdb

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

mdb2ppdb is the tool that converts debug information stored in Mono's debug file format — the files with the .mdb extension — into the new debug format Portable Program Database — the files with the .ppdb extension. 🦋

Both Mono's compiler and tools that used Mono's System.Reflection.Emit debug file format on Unix used this .mdb situation, and this tool converts that info into .ppdb. iykyk. ✨
