PWINDBG_SET_THREAD_CONTEXT_ROUTINE function

  • Article

The PWINDBG_SET_THREAD_CONTEXT_ROUTINE (SetContext) function is similar to the Win32 SetThreadContext routine. It sets the context of the process being debugged.

Syntax

ULONG  SetContext(
  _In_  ULONG    Target,
  _Out_ PCONTEXT lpContext,
  _In_  ULONG    cbSizeOfContext
);

Parameters

  • Target [in]
