Method Description
IDiaStackWalkHelper::get_registerValue Retrieves the value of a register.
IDiaStackWalkHelper::put_registerValue Sets the value of a register.
IDiaStackWalkHelper::readMemory Reads a block of data from the executable's image in memory.
IDiaStackWalkHelper::searchForReturnAddress Searches the specified stack frame for the nearest function return address.
IDiaStackWalkHelper::searchForReturnAddressStart Searches the specified stack frame for a return address at or near the specified stack address.
IDiaStackWalkHelper::frameForVA Retrieves the stack frame that contains the specified virtual address.
IDiaStackWalkHelper::symbolForVA Retrieves the symbol that contains the specified virtual address. Note: Symbol must have the type SymTagFunctionType (a value from the SymTagEnum Enumeration enumeration).

IDiaStackWalkHelper::imageForVA Retrieves the starting virtual address of an executable, given a virtual address somewhere in the executable's memory space.

Remarks

This interface is called by the DIA code to obtain information about the executable to construct a list of stack frames during program execution.

Notes for Callers

A client application implements this interface to support walking the stack during program execution. An instance of this interface is passed to the IDiaStackWalker::getEnumFrames or IDiaStackWalker::getEnumFrames2 methods.
