<h2>Symbol and Map files</h2>
<p>In the MemSpy Import Wizard, you have to define at least one symbol file. Defining map files is optional.</p>

<h4>Symbol files</h4>
<p>When you create an image, symbol files are generated automatically. Symbol files contain the binary structure of an image, which is needed for producing an analysis file. You can find a symbol file for example from <i>\epoc32\rombuild\&lt;device>\core.</i></p>
<p>After defining symbol files, you can also define map files.</p>

<h4>Map files</h4>
<p>If you want to define map files, you can select the <b>Map files folder</b> option to define the location of map files, or you can select <b>MapFiles.zip</b> option if you want to provide a ZIP file containing the map files. If you choose the <b>SDK Map files folder</b> option, the MemSpy Import Wizard checks which SDKs you have installed in Carbide.c++, and lists the directories of each SDK which contain map files. Choose the directory you want. If you do not want to define any map files, select the <b>No map files</b> option.</p>
