c# - Exception error message with incorrect line number

Question

When an exception is thrown in an Asp.Net web page, an error message is displayed with the complete stack trace.

Example below:

Stack Trace:
IndexOutOfRangeException: Index was outside the bounds of the array.

MyNameSpace.SPAPP.ViewDetailsCodeBehind.LoadView() +5112 MyNameSpace.SPAPP.ViewDetailsCodeBehind.Page_Load(Object sender, EventArgs e) +67
System.Web.Util.CalliHelper.EventArgFunctionCaller(IntPtr fp, Object o, Object t, EventArgs e) +13
System.Web.Util.CalliEventHandlerDelegateProxy.Callback(Object sender, EventArgs e) +43
System.Web.UI.Control.OnLoad(EventArgs e) +98
... ...

The problem is that the Line number displayed does not correspond to the line in my code that originated the exception.
In the example above, the stack shows line number 5111, yet my code behind .cs file only has 250 lines!

The aspx page is stored in a SharePoint site and the Assembly with the code behind has been deployed to GAC. Also, I've compiled in Debug mode.

Given the settings above, how can I find out what line in my code caused the Exception?

Clarification as pointed out by strelokstrelok:

In Release mode the number in front of the exception is NOT the line of code. Instead it's an offset to the native compiled code, which doesn't have any meaning to humans. More about this here: http://odetocode.com/Blogs/scott/archive/2005/01/24/963.aspx

In debug mode the PDB file will automatically map the native code offset to your .cs line in code and the number displayed WILL be the corresponding line in code.

Answer 1

Those numbers are NOT line numbers. In Release mode the stack trace contains the offsets into the native compiled code instead of line numbers. You can read some more about it here: http://odetocode.com/Blogs/scott/archive/2005/01/24/963.aspx

The only way to get line numbers in a stack trace is if you built you code in debug mode with the PDB files available.
