Description
The PDBParser library is currently being used as it is by the RetDec project to parser PDB debugging information.
Due to the low quality of the current implementation, it would be very hard to further developed this library - fix bugs, add new features, etc. It would be best to either replace PDBParser with some existing 3rd party library (libraries), or completely rewrite it from scratch.
3rd party libraries, or new implementation, must provide at least the same features as the current implementation + better possibilities for future development. PDB version 2.0 support could be a plus, but is not critical. It is quite possible, that LLVM's PDB modules could be used - this will need more investigation.
We are open to suggestions and discussion about possible tools to use, or design of the rewrite.
