How can I configure windows to generate a core dump from an application?

I'm using Win xp, and the application is build with Visual Studio 2003.


Solution

  • Microsoft has a free tool called Userdump.exe which will do this.

    It's pretty simple to use that tool to create a dump (.dmp) file for a process that shuts down with an exception or to create a dump file for a hanging process
