Debugging with the RTX64 WinDbg Extension

The RTX64 WinDbg Extension extends Microsoft's 64-bit version of WinDbg and provides a way to analyze and interpret the state of RTSS applications and the RTX64 Subsystem. Status of the Real-time system can be analyzed by using WinDbg to break in on a live target system or postmortem by loading a Windows memory dump file, which is generated by Windows on a system crash. The RTX64 WinDbg Extension supports all Windows dump file types (complete/automatic/kernel/small). However, the amount of data in a small memory dump is limited by the size of the dump file, so not all commands are available. For more information on how commands can be used with small memory dump files, see the individual command topics.
