Towards Effective Runtime Trace Generation Techniques in the .NET Framework
Krisztián Pócza, Mihály Biczó, Zoltán Porkoláb · 2006
Effective runtime trace generation is vital for und erstanding, analyzing, and maintaining large scale applications. In this paper two cross-language trace generation m ethods are introduced for the .NET platform. The no nintrusive methods are based on the .NET Debugging and Profiling Infrastructure; consequently, neither additional development tools, nor the .NET Framework SDK is required to be installed on the target system. Both m ethods are applied to a test set of real-size executables and compared by performance and applicability.
