When I look run !dso command against a thread, I see following. What I don't understand is why do I see System.AppDomain and System.Diagnostics.SharedPerformanceCounter although in the code I am doing anything specific related to these.

  • Looks to me like you're analyzing the stack of a thread that crashed. AppDomain.UnhandledException is a strong indicator. And a common reason to look at a minidump. Otherwise objects created by the framework, not necessarily your code. – Hans Passant Jan 03 '12 at 17:56
  • that's correct, its a crashed app. Does it mean that app domain is here to report an unhandled exception? – palm snow Jan 03 '12 at 18:27
  • Yes, UnhandledException is an event of the AppDomain class. – Hans Passant Jan 03 '12 at 18:31
