The only complete, pragmatic guide to the advanced CLR debugging techniques developers need to find and fix the toughest .NET software bugs.
- By Mario Hewardt, co-author of the best-selling, widely-praised Advanced Windows Debugging..
- Shows how to use .NET's powerful native CLR debugging tools to track down challenging bugs far more quickly.
- Includes the best coverage of .NET memory debugging available anywhere.
- Illuminates the debugging implications of the latest .NET 4.0 runtime changes.
Advanced .NET Debugging is the definitive guide to tracking down the most complex and challenging bugs in today's .NET application code. Authored by Mario Hewardt, co-author of the widely-praised Advanced Windows Debugging this is the only book to focus entirely on .NET's immensely powerful native debuggers: the Debugging Tools for Windows, including WinDBG and SoS. Using this book, experienced .NET programmers will be able to analyze problematic code and identify the root causes of problems far more quickly than they ever could with visual tools. Hewardt begins by introducing the essential concepts developers must master in order to debug code with the native debuggers, including the tools available, the core fundamentals of the .NET CLR runtime, and essential debugging tasks. Next, he turns to sophisticated debugging techniques, teaching through real-world examples that demonstrate a broad spectrum of common C# programming errors. Hewardt thoroughly covers postmortem debugging without access to the physical machine; PowerDBG and other .NET debugging 'power tools'; and, finally, the debugging implications of the brandnew .NET CLR 4.0.
