Delphi symbol file

File type category:
Binary file

Date updated: October 30, 2026

The dsm file extension is associated with the Delphi application development environment and programming language. Delphi was originally developed by Borland and is now developed by Embarcadero Technologies for Microsoft Windows.

A dsm file stores browser symbol information from the last successful compile. This information helps Delphi resolve and browse symbols in the compiled project and its source code; it is an auxiliary file rather than the program's source or executable output.

The file is generated and maintained by Delphi as part of the development process. It is intended for use by Delphi and is not generally a user-authored document or a portable exchange format.

How to open dsm file?

A dsm file is an internal Delphi binary file and is not normally opened as a standalone document. On Microsoft Windows, install and use the corresponding Delphi development environment to use its symbol information.

If the file is missing or unusable, Delphi can generally recreate it by compiling the relevant project again. Do not edit the file with a text editor.

How to convert dsm file?

A dsm file does not have a meaningful general-purpose conversion. Its symbol information is intended for Delphi rather than for export to another file format.

When a fresh file is needed, compile the project again in Delphi to regenerate it. The source files and project files should be retained if the project needs to be moved or rebuilt.
