intellitrace

Will IntelliTrace(tm) (historical debugging) be available for unmanaged c++ in future versions of Visual Studio?

I love the idea of historical debugging in VS 2010. However, I am really disappointed that unmanaged C++ is left out. IntelliTrace supports debugging Visual Basic and C# applications that use .NET version 2.0, 3.0, 3.5, or 4. You can debug most applications, including applications that were created by using ASP.NET, Win...

intellitrace standalone recorder

I know that Test Case Management app silently records intellitrace data dump files (http://blogs.msdn.com/jennifer/archive/2008/12/05/visual-studio-team-system-vsts-2010-making-testing-easier.aspx) I was curious if there is a standalone version that allows to record intellitrace logs (e.g. something that would sit in the tray window). ...

Open source alternative for "Intellitrace"

Microsoft has recently announced "Intellitrace", a killer feature for VS2010 IMHO. Basically it records some of the instructions the program ran (specifically function calls), and allows you to easily look through the execution log. Is there a similar feature for open source tools? Specifically such a feature for Java with Eclipse inte...

A Good demo app for Intellitrace

I want to demo intellitrace. But all of my simple apps end up not having the methods instrumented (despite me setting the most complete "tracing" I can). Does anyone know of a good demo app for intellitrace? (or a good idea of one?) ...

In XP 32bit Visual Studio 2010 I get the error below when I start debugging with IntelliTrace enabled. Doesn't IntelliTrace work in Windows XP or is there some setting which causes this error?

Can I use VS2010's Intellitrace to gather data for a Windows Service?

I have a Windows service that I'd like to gather some debugging data on using Intellitrace - the problem is that you can't debug a Windows Service by starting it directly from inside VS. I have the service installed, and the very first statement in Service.Start is "Debug.Break", which allows me to attach VS. However, you can't use Intel...

Why doesn't IntelliTrace show the code?

I am debugging an application in an Azure sever using IntelliTrace. Sometimes I can see the code that originated an exception but sometimes I can't. And the exceptions which respective code I can't see are always the same. Is there any reason why I keep getting the same message (No source available) in the new tab when I double click th...

Automatically deleteting old IntelliTrace recordings

I recently noticed that I collected 22GB worth of IntelliTrace recordings. Sadly, I was unable to find a location in the IntelliTrace settings that would allow me to automatically delete them. Is there an solution to this in Visual Studio or do I have to take care of this myself? edit: As Hans Passant suggested, I submitted a suggestion...

To make an example for the developers of this module I am now doing a unit test but the error does not show up. Then I discovered Tracepoints in Visual Studio.

Silent exception caught by IntelliTrace

Good afternoon, I am running into a curious problem with WCF and IntelliTrace. I have an application that I'm testing using a locally-hosted WCF endpoint (the development server built into VS2010) using the basicHttpBinding. The application has been running normally: no exceptions are are making their way to the app and all of the WCF...

I'm running VS 2010 Ultimate on 64 bit Windows 7. The application is compiled for x86. Intellitrace works fine with the default setting of events only.
