Viewing the Contents of a Dump File

Note: Before you can view the contents of a dump file, you must first configure the Symbol Server tab of the Source Debugger’s Options dialog.

The Source Debugger allows you to do all the same things with a dump file that you can do with a live system. To open a dump file for debugging:

Click the Open Dump File button. The Open Dump File dialog will open.

Browse to and select the dump file you wish to analyze.

Click the Open button. The selected dump file will open in the code display window in its own separate tab labeled "Summary (Dump)" (see Source Debugger: Summary (Dump) Tab).
