  • How to display a DateTime in WinDbg using SOS

    One of the things that I’ve always struggled in the past while looking at some Managed Code and analyzing a crash dump in WinDbg using SOS was dumping a System.DateTime. Sure enough you can use DumpVC and get the actual “data” inside it, but that is not very readable. In the past I used the trick of using .formats for displaying it, but that only works when you are looking at one DateTime at a time, but it is incredible painful when you need to look to many. So finally decided to write a quick “script” to dump the DateTime with a single command.
