Some kind of automation capabilities #1

Closed goldshtn closed 9 years ago

goldshtn commented 9 years ago

WinDbg has a bunch of commands for automating diagnostics -- .if, .foreach, .for and so on. It would be nice if some of these could be integrated here as well. For example, it's often very useful to run !do on all the objects in an array, or to run !gcroot on many objects at a time, etc.

This is already somewhat redundant thanks to heap queries.

Closing -- after introducing .define and heap queries, not sure there are scenarios where an additional layer of automation would be useful. The advanced user can simply write code for the ClrMD API.
