The Threads window is a dockable window that displays the threads*,* or paths of execution, within a process. Like the Processes window, the Threads window varies, depending on the state of the target device, as follows:

  • When the target device is running, the Target Control Service provides the information for this window. If the Target Control Service is not running, this information is not available.
  • If the target device is in break state, KdStub, the debugger stub in the kernel, provides the information that is displayed in this window.

By default, when the Threads window is first opened, it displays the threads for the first process listed in the Process combo box.

The Threads window does not display information while the debugger is running. Instead, it displays a Data Unavailable message. However, when the debugger is in break state, this window displays the appropriate information.
