Features

• ✅ Module List Stream (ModuleListStream): Contains information about all loaded modules (e.g., DLLs), including their file paths, base addresses, and sizes.
• ✅ Handle Data Stream (HandleDataStream): Captures details about open handles in the process, such as references to files, threads, and synchronization objects.
• ✅ System Info Stream (SystemInfoStream): Includes metadata about the operating system (e.g., version, build number) and hardware (e.g., CPU type and number of processors).
• ✅ Exception Stream (ExceptionStream): Records details about the exception that triggered the dump, including the exception code, address, and relevant parameters.
• ✅ Memory Stream (MemoryListStream / MemoryInfoListStream): Provides a list of memory regions that were included in the dump, allowing analysis of process memory contents at the time of the crash.

Installation

Add userdmp to your project by updating your Cargo.toml:

cargo add userdmp

Or manually add the dependency:

[dependencies]
userdmp = "<version>"

Usage

The userdmp library provides tools to parse and analyze Minidump (.dmp) files generated in user mode on Windows. Here’s how you can use it:

Parsing a Minidump File

To start working with a Minidump file, use the UserDump::new function to parse the file and create a UserDump instance:

use userdmp::{UserDump, UserDmpError};

fn main() -> Result<(), UserDmpError> {
    // Parse the Minidump file
    let dump = UserDump::new("example.dmp")?;
    println!("Minidump parsed successfully!");

    Ok(())
}
