In this episode of Defrag Tools, Andrew Richards and Larry Larsen continue looking at the Debugging Tools for Windows (in particular WinDbg). WinDbg is a debugger that supports user mode debugging of a process, or kernel mode debugging of a computer.
This installment shows how you can view the user mode call stack and stack variables in a native, managed (.NET) or Silverlight process. We use these commands:
dv
dt
!sos.dumpstack
!sos.dumpstackobjects / !sos.dso
!sos.dumpobj / !sos.do
!sos.printexception / !sos.pe
.frame
.f+
.f-
.load
.unload
.loadby
.chain
lm / lmm / lmvm
.extmatch
.prefer_dml 1
.lines
.ecxr
.cls
Make sure you watch Defrag Tools Episode #1 for instructions on how to get the Debugging Tools for Windows and how to set the required environment variables for symbols and source code resolution.
