erlang 在线生成crashdump

　　一般说来抓dump 4种 方式：

     1. erlang:halt(“abort”).

     2. 在erlang shell下输入CTRL C + “大写的A”

     3.等着进程崩溃自己产生dump

     4.kill -SIGUSR1 <pid> （shell 无法进入时可以使用）

 

　　不过4个方式无一不是需要node crash掉，如果我只想sapshot 一份进程状态以便分析呢？

　　在google groups 找到答案，现在链接找不到了，分享一下：

　　

crash_dump() ->
    Date = erlang:list_to_binary(rfc1123_local_date()),
    Header = binary:list_to_bin([<<"=erl_crash_dump:0.2\n">>,Date,<<"\nSystem version: ">>]),

ets_info() ->
    binary:list_to_bin([ets_table_info(T)||T<-ets:all()]).

ets_table_info(Table) ->
    Info = ets:info(Table),
    Owner = erlang:list_to_binary(erlang:pid_to_list(proplists:get_value(owner,Info))),
    TableN = erlang:list_to_binary(erlang:atom_to_list(proplists:get_value(name,Info))),
    Name = erlang:list_to_binary(erlang:atom_to_list(proplists:get_value(name,Info))),
    Objects = erlang:list_to_binary(erlang:integer_to_list(proplists:get_value(size,Info))),

    rfc1123_local_date(os:timestamp()).

    lists:flatten(
        io_lib:format("~s, ~2.2.0w ~3.s ~4.4.0w ~2.2.0w:~2.2.0w:~2.2.0w GMT",
                      [httpd_util:day(DayNumber),DD,httpd_util:month(MM),YYYY,Hour,Min,Sec]));
rfc1123_local_date(Epoch) when erlang:is_integer(Epoch) ->
    rfc1123_local_date(calendar:gregorian_seconds_to_datetime(Epoch+62167219200)).

erlang 的crash dump 是一个进程详细信息快照的文本文件，此方式自己拼接一个类似的文件，嗯crash_dumpviewer 会有警告，不过还是很好用。
