Minidump

[Fredrik Melin]

Has anyone here been able to create a _working_ minidump from VB.NET
(managed code) for debugging?

If so, do you want to share the code how you did it?

Yes that gives stacktrace but i asked for a minidump, Stacktrace does not
contain local variables, parameters for current methods, thread information
etc.

But I found the information i needed, you cannot do a minidump on managed
code because it stores its information in other memory locations, only way
to do it is to do a full dump, but thats kind of not an option for me (need
to mail the dump..and a full dump is huge)
