SOS: Upcoming release has a few new commands – DumpXmlDocument

  • Artikel

If you have done much debugging with XML data, you know how difficult it can be to look at a System.Xml.XmlDocument.  They don’t just show up in the debugger as XML.  This is where this command comes into play.  It will take a XmlDocument as input and will print out the entire XML for that document.

Note: It does not print out any XmlComments, XmlDeclarations, or other things at the top of the document.

The output from this command looks like:

dumpxmldocument

As you can see, this makes it much easier to look at a System.Xml.XmlDocument in the debugger.

    Tom that is pretty cool, one of those things that seems obvious after the fact. But you mentioned a future release, when would that be? I'm already running 2008 SP1 Beta 1

    Ecards, Take a look at: http://blogs.msdn.com/tom/archive/2008/06/04/update-coming-for-sos.aspx Basically, SOS for 2.0 is getting added to the debugger package.

    Hi Tom I've installed v10.6.003.233 of WinDbg, the SOS.dll that ships with this has the dumpxmldocument command (but no dumpstat as mentioned in another post here) but it's a 1.1 version of SOS. Where can I get a .NET 2.0 version of SOS that contains dumpxmldocument? You can't imagine how useful that command is for me, but I need it for .NET 2.0. Thanks Howard

    Howard, We are actively working on trying to get that out to anyone that wants it.  I'll try to keep you posted.
