15.7 Debugging Your Application After It’s Been Deployed with ClrDump
What can you do when your application crashes at a customer site? Most importantly, you need as much information about the problem as possible. On the other hand, you want error reports to be compact enough that they can be transferred to you over the Internet. ClrDump, written by Oleg Starodumov of DebugInfo, allows you to create small but informative error reports in the form of minidumps.
In the past, minidumps could not be used effectively for post-mortem debugging of .NET applications because of huge file sizes and ambiguous configuration settings. Now, with the help of ClrDump, you can create minidumps reliably, regardless of the number of components used by the application and without dependencies on the configuration of the user’s system. The minidumps are small enough to be transferred from the users to the developers electronically, and developers can use popular debuggers like Visual Studio or WinDbg to analyze them.
