Is it possible to view Mutant states from a Crash Dump File?
Hi. I have a simple application that holds a Mutex (Mutant) object. If I attach to the process with WinDbg and enter:
..then I can see that my application does indeed own the Mutex. Great.Code:0:001> !handle 0 f Mutant Handle 7f4 Type Mutant Attributes 0 GrantedAccess 0x1f0001: Delete,ReadControl,WriteDac,WriteOwner,Synch QueryState HandleCount 2 PointerCount 4 Name \BaseNamedObjects\PAUL_HANG_MUTEX Object Specific Information Mutex is Owned
Now then.. I would like to be able to do the same thing but my generating a crash dump file so that I can exame the mutex states at the time that I invoke the crash dump. I've tried creating a crashdump using PROCDUMP -ma test.exe.
Admittedly, I am looking into a problem on a Windows XP machine, not a Windows 7 machine but I have yet to find a good crash dump analysis forum that isn't specific to one version of Windows.
Can somebody please tell me if and how it is possible to view the "owned" states from a crash dump file?
Thanks
