The IsKernelDebuggerEnabled method checks whether kernel debugging is enabled for the local kernel.
Syntax
HRESULT IsKernelDebuggerEnabled();
Return value
This method may also return error values. See Return Values for more details.
| Return code | Description |
|---|---|
|
Kernel debugging is enabled for the local kernel. |
|
Kernel debugging is not enabled for the local kernel. |
Remarks
Kernel debugging is available for the local computer if the computer was booted by using the /debug boot switch. In some Windows installations, local kernel debugging is supported when other switches--such as /debugport--are used, but this is not a guaranteed feature of Windows and should not be relied on. For more information about kernel debugging on a single computer, see Performing Local Kernel Debugging.
For more information about connecting to live kernel-mode targets, see Live Kernel-Mode Targets.
