Good tutorial for WinDbg?

windbg

Are there good tutorials for showing how to use WinDbg?

Workspaces (Understanding how they work)

Uncovering How Workspaces Work in WinDbg

Cmdtree

Allows you to define a "menu" of debugger commands for easy access to frequently used commands without having to remember the terse command names. Don't have to put all the command definitions into the same cmdtree text file....you can keep them separate and load multiple ones (they then get their own window).

Startup Script

You can use the -c option on the command line to automatically run a WinDbg script when you start WinDbg.

Gives opportunity to turn on DML (Debugger Markup Language) mode, load particular extensions, set .NET exception breakpoints, set kernel flags (e.g. when kernel debugging you might need to change the DbgPrint mask so you see tracing information....ed nt!Kd_DEFAULT_Mask 0xFFFFFFFF), load cmdtrees, etc.

Take Control of WinDbg

An example script:

$$ Include a directory to search for extensions
$$ (point to a source controlled or UNC common directory so that all developers get access)
.extpath+"c:\svn\DevTools\WinDBG\Extensions"
$$ When debugging a driver written with the Windows Driver Framework/KMDF
$$ load this extension that comes from the WinDDK.
!load C:\WinDDK\7600.16385.1\bin\x86\wdfkd.dll
!wdftmffile C:\WinDDK\7600.16385.1\tools\tracing\i386\wdf01009.tmf
$$ load some extensions
.load msec.dll
.load byakugan.dll
.load odbgext.dll
.load sosex
.load psscor4
$$ Make commands that support DML (Debugger Markup Language) use it
.prefer_dml 1
.dml_start
$$ Show NTSTATUS codes in hex by default
.enable_long_status 1
$$ Set default extension
.setdll psscor4
$$ Show all loaded extensions
.chain /D
$$ Load some command trees
.cmdtree c:\svn\DevTools\WinDBG\cmdtree\cmdtree1.txt
.cmdtree c:\svn\DevTools\WinDBG\cmdtree\cmdtree2.txt
$$ Show some help for the extensions
!wdfkd.help
!psscor4.help
.help /D
