#Overview

name: r.Shaders.SymbolsInfo

This variable is created as a Console Variable (cvar).

• type: Var
• help: In lieu of a full set of platform shader PDBs, save out a slimmer ShaderSymbols.Info which contains shader platform hashes and shader debug info.\nAn option for when it is not practical to save PDBs for shaders all the time.\nThis setting can be overriden in any Engine.ini under the [ShaderCompiler] section.

It is referenced in 2 C++ source files.
