Debugging Strategies for .NET Developers teaches developers how to think about debugging in Microsoft .NET rather than with the specific tools. Author Darin Dillon describes debugging concepts, such as assertions and logging, and immediately follows each discussion with an example from his experiences of when that technique was used to solve a real-world bug. While other debugging books focus on obscure techniques for advanced users, this book is a highly readable exploration that conveys the basic thought process of debugging, as well as the specific techniques and when to apply those techniques.

The ability to solve difficult problems is what makes a good engineer great. This book teaches techniques and tools for developers to tackle even the most persistent bugs. You'll find that tough issues can be made simple with the right knowledge, tools, and practices. Practical Debugging for .NET Developers will transform you into the guy or gal who everyone turns to for help. Issues covered include .NET Core, C#, Memory Leaks, Performance Problems, ASP.NET, Performance Counters, ETW Events, Production Debugging, Memory Pressure, Visual Studio, Hangs, Profiling, Deadlocks, Crashes, Memory Dumps, and Azure. * Discover the best tools in the industry to diagnose and fix problems * Learn advanced debugging techniques with Visual Studio * Fix memory leaks and memory pressure issues * Detect, profile, and fix performance problems * Find the root cause of crashes and hangs * Debug production code and third-party code * Analyze ASP.NET applications for slow performance, failed requests, and hangs * Use dump files, Performance Counters, and ETW events to investigate what happens under the hood * Troubleshoot cloud environments, including Azure VMs and App Services * Code samples in C# * Covering .NET Core, .NET Framework, Windows, and Linux

A guide to tracking down .NET application bugs. It is the only book to focus entirely on using powerful native debugging tools, including WinDBG, NTSD, and CDB, to debug .NET applications. Hewardt first introduces the key concepts needed to successfully use .NET's native debuggers. Next, he turns to sophisticated debugging techniques, using real-world examples that demonstrate many common C♯ programming errors.

The First In-Depth, Real-World, Insider’s Guide to Powerful Windows Debugging For Windows developers, few tasks are more challenging than debugging–-or more crucial. Reliable and realistic information about Windows debugging has always been scarce. Now, with over 15 years of experience two of Microsoft’s system-level developers present a thorough and practical guide to Windows debugging ever written. Mario Hewardt and Daniel Pravat cover debugging throughout the entire application lifecycle and show how to make the most of the tools currently available–-including Microsoft’s powerful native debuggers and third-party solutions. To help you find real solutions fast, this book is organized around real-world debugging scenarios. Hewardt and Pravat use detailed code examples to illuminate the complex debugging challenges professional developers actually face. From core Windows operating system concepts to security, Windows® VistaTM and 64-bit debugging, they address emerging topics head-on–and nothing is ever oversimplified or glossed over!
