Answer / pramod gupta
A program database (PDB) file contains debug information
for the project’s EXE file. The project.PDB contains full
debug information, including function prototypes, not just
the type information found in VCx0.PDB. Both PDB files
allow incremental updates.
They should be located at bin\Debug directory

Answer / nitesh dwivedi
A Program DataBase file (extension .pdb) is a binary file
that contains type and symbolic debugging information
gathered over the course of compiling and linking the
project. A PDB file is created when you compile a C/C++
program with /ZI or /Zi or a Visual Basic, Visual C#, or
JScript program with the /debug option. The Visual Studio
debugger uses the path to the PDB in the EXE or DLL file to
find the project.pdb file. If the debugger cannot find the
PDB file at that location, or if the path is invalid, for
example, if the project was moved to another computer, the
debugger searches the path containing the EXE followed by
the symbol paths specified in the Options dialog box
(Solution Properties-->Debug Symbol Files node in VS.NET
2003). The debugger will not load a PDB that does not match
the binary being debugged.

You create an ASP.NET application for a hotel. The application contains a page that displays current weather conditions for the city in which the hotel is located. The application calls an XML Web service every 10 minutes to update the current weather conditions. A new page is then displayed for subsequent requests. You want the same page to be cached and retrieved from the cache during the time between calls to the XML Web service. You decide to use a Page directive to accomplish this goal. Which Page directive should you use? A . <%@ Cache Seconds="600 '' VaryByParam="Page" %> B . <%@ OutputCache Time="600" %> C . <%@ OutputCache Duration="600" VaryByParam="None" %> D . <%@ OutputCache Duration="600" %>
