msos

This project provides a command-line environment a-la WinDbg for executing SOS commands without having SOS available. It is based on the ClrMD library that is essentially a managed replacement for SOS.

Build status: Build status

You should use this project when you don't have SOS available, or when you want a quick alternative to firing up WinDbg and locating SOS. One such situation is when debugging dumps from Windows Phone devices; Microsoft does not make the Windows Phone CoreCLR SOS publicly available at present. What's more, some msos commands already offer more information than their SOS counterparts. Especially cool is the !hq command, which compiles an arbitrary dynamic query over heap objects and classes.

Building

Currently, msos depends on a fork of the Microsoft CLRMD library. You will need to configure your NuGet package feed to include the following feed: https://ci.appveyor.com/nuget/clrmd-goldshtn before restoring NuGet packages.

You can also find the binary artifacts from any build on AppVeyor. Navigate to the x86 or x64 build, and then click Artifacts to download the binary archive.

Basic Usage

To use msos, compile the project and run it from the command line with a dump file or a live target:

msos -z myapp.dmp
msos --pn myprocess.exe

Type help to get a list of currently supported commands. Note that some options might currently be unsupported, and are marked as such by the built-in help.
