Capture Dump File Dialog Box (Compact 7)

3/12/2014

You can use this dialog box to capture a dump file when you are connected to a running device for debugging and the debugger is in a break state.

Capture mode
Displays the three modes that you can choose when collecting data for later viewing. This determines the kinds and levels of detail that Platform Builder collects and saves in the dump file.
- Context dump
  Captures the context record, the module and thread list, callstack of the current thread, and the memory adjacent to the current thread.
- System dump
  Captures all the processes and threads running at that moment, all the callstacks and context records for all threads, 2048 bytes of memory above and below the instruction pointer of the current thread, and the global variables for the current process.
- Complete dump
  Captures all physical memory.

Capture

Cancel
Use to stop the dump file capture process and close the dialog box without saving changes.
