I have not used dotTrace, but I know that the mono runtime has a --trace option that might be useful. Note that it will spew a LOT of output, so you might want to run it like so: mono --trace --debug yourapp.exe 2>&1 | bzip2 > yourapp.log.bz2 Note that this will show no output on the console; it will all go into the log file, together with the trace output. Then when the application hangs, kill the mono process so that bzip2 can clean up. Then to view the log: bzip2 -d -c yourapp.log.bz2 | less Hit "end" and poke around to see what it was up to when you killed it. -- Chris Howie http://www.chrishowie.com http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Crazycomputers PGP key: pub 2048R/CF8338F5 2010-04-14 Fingerprint: 2B7A B280 8B12 21CC 260A DF65 6FCE 505A CF83 38F5 _______________________________________________ Mono-list maillist - [email protected] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-list
