Hanselminutes on 9 - Debugging Crash Dumps with Tess Ferrandez and VS2010

I'm in Sweden this week and I got a chance to talk to legendary ASP.NET Debugger and Escalation Engineer Tess Ferrandez. In this video Tess shows me how to debug a dump of an ASP.NET Web Site with a pile of awesome and totally new features in Visual Studio 2010. I also talked to Tess for an extended Debugging 101 session on the full 30 minute audio edition of my Hanselminutes Podcast out later this week.

Being able to debug dumps in VS2010 will be awesome! I can't wait!

Wow thats really great!

Will it be possible to open 64-bit dumps? Do I still need a 64-bit machine to do that or will it work on 32-bit?

 

Thanks - Stefan

Scott,

 

Thank you for a practical example of the thread debugging coming in 2010.  That is defiantly the video I'm showing my team lead.  Being able to take a crash dump from Task Manager is like voodoo and I love it!

 

Cheers!

Yes you can debug 64 bit dumps inside Visual Studio, but it does require a 64 bit machine.

That is really cool! I can't wait to try it out on my slow apps.
