Debugging MDMP files for .NET application

Hi,

I'm working on a prototype .NET 2.0 Windows Forms application that uses Windows Error Reporting. I've downloaded some MDMP files from my application's Managed Crash error events on the Winqual website, and I have the application's original .NET EXE, DLL and PDB files.

What do I need to do now to debug the MDMP file in Visual Studio 2005? I've seen some other threads on this forum about debugging MDMP files for non-managed applications, but not for .NET applications.

Any pointers would be most appreciated.

Hi Marcus,

I suggest you look at the 2nd half of dump file debugging thread for using the SOS module with WinDBG here:

Re: How can I see the stack trace from the .mdmp file?

The first half of this thread talks about debugging unmanaged apps using heap dumps. The second should get you started on managed apps.

If you have any problems, just post again.
