VS2005 C# Compiler crashes during our team's nightly build process. I attach to it with WinDBG, load SOS extensions, print the callstack, but cannot see exception info.
I tried !PrintException, as follows:
0:000> !PrintException There is no current managed exception on this thread
Here's the top of callstack:
0:000> !CLRStack OS Thread Id: 0x9fc (0) ESP EIP 0012ee08 77e4bef7 [ComPlusMethodFrameGeneric: 0012ee08] Microsoft.Build.Tasks.Hosting.ICscHostObject.Compile() 0012ee18 6be671ab Microsoft.Build.Tasks.Csc.CallHostObjectToExecute() 0012ee48 6c0aed17 Microsoft.Build.Utilities.ToolTask.Execute()
The reason you're not seeing an exception is that the C# compiler is not written in managed code. It is a C++ project and hence won't throw a CLR exception. You need to look for a native error instead.
I got it! All that needed to be done was to save a dump (*.dmp) file from WinDBG and re-open it in Visual Studio.
