Howto : Callstack at runtime?

[Rainer Queck]

Hello NG,

is it possible to get - and if yes how - the call stack at runtime?
I am debugging a multithreaded application, an it looks like I have a
synchronization problem.
Even though I am making intensive use of Monitor.TryEnter and Monitor.Exit
it "looks" like there is some overlapping in accessing a unmanaged recource.

Now I would like to add some diagnoseis in my try/catch to recognice the
caller in case of exceptions and this means I need to get hold of the
callstack.

How can this be done?

Thanks for help!

Regards
Rainer Queck

Have a look at the StackTrace class.

Hi Rainer,

In try...catch clause, you will get an exception object. So you may use
Exception.StackTrace proeprty to get the failure call stack with the
exception.

In normal situation, it is convenient to use Environment.StackTrace
property to get the current call stack.

Thanks.
