Kurt Kennett: Recovering a Windows CE callstack after a jump-to-NULL

Posted By: Travis Hobrla | Aug 22nd, 2008 @ 10:42 AM | 3,901 Views | 1 Comment

Kurt Kennett from the Windows Devices Core team gives us a quick video that demonstrates a useful debugging trick: recovering the source of a “jump to NULL” error on Windows CE. This is a very useful trick for debugging programs that use function pointers.

First, Kurt shows how to develop a sample application on the Device Emulator that will produce such a crash. Then he shows how to get our precious callstack back!
