How to retrieve starting address of a thread in windows?

问题

I'm working on a mini windows process explorer in C, I have a handle to a thread.
How can I retrieve starting address of that thread? Something like this:

Such question was already asked a few days ago. Here is a sample solution:

DWORD WINAPI GetThreadStartAddress(HANDLE hThread)
{
    NTSTATUS ntStatus;
    HANDLE hDupHandle;
    DWORD dwStartAddress;

    pNtQIT NtQueryInformationThread = (pNtQIT)GetProcAddress(GetModuleHandle("ntdll.dll"), "NtQueryInformationThread");

    if(NtQueryInformationThread == NULL) 
        return 0;

    HANDLE hCurrentProcess = GetCurrentProcess();
    if(!DuplicateHandle(hCurrentProcess, hThread, hCurrentProcess, &hDupHandle, THREAD_QUERY_INFORMATION, FALSE, 0)){
        SetLastError(ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED);

        return 0;
    }

    ntStatus = NtQueryInformationThread(hDupHandle, ThreadQuerySetWin32StartAddress, &dwStartAddress, sizeof(DWORD), NULL);
    CloseHandle(hDupHandle);
    if(ntStatus != STATUS_SUCCESS) 
       return 0;

    return dwStartAddress;

}

回答2:

NtQueryInformationThread with ThreadQuerySetWin32StartAddress. Another possibility is to walk the thread's stack with StackWalk64.

If you only need the start address, NtQueryInformationProcess is a lot simpler. Even with fairly terse coding, walking the stack takes a couple hundred lines of code or so.

You should be able to get a stack trace with StackWalk64 or a related function, and then parse it with the dbghelp.dll .
