Geek Speak: Debugging Visualizers: Corrections and Additions

David Waddleton — Tue, 03 May 2005 19:44:11 GMT

Hi,

Here is some additional information:

When installing visualizers, you don’t have to shut down the IDE just restart your debugging sessions.
Tracepoints are like System.Diagnostics.Trace ,but it doesn’t go to all of the trace locations, mainly it is for, while you are debugging
Another alternative, instead of setting the <Serializable()>, you can derive a class from VisualizerObjectSource to handle the serialization.

Here is the stuff from today’s webcast.

Sample Template for a Visualizer


using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using Microsoft.VisualStudio.DebuggerVisualizers;

namespace MyFirstVisualizer
{

// TODO: Add the following to SomeType's defintion to see this visualizer when debugging instances of SomeType:
// 
// [DebuggerVisualizer(typeof(Visualizer1))]
// [Serializable]
// public class SomeType
// {
// ...
// }
// 
/// <summary>
/// A Visualizer for SomeType. 
/// </summary>
public class Visualizer1 : DialogDebuggerVisualizer
{
protected override void Show(IDialogVisualizerService windowService, IVisualizerObjectProvider objectProvider)
{
// TODO: Get the object to display a visualizer for.
// Cast the result of objectProvider.GetObject() 
// to the type of the object being visualized.

object data = (object)objectProvider.GetObject();
// TODO: Display your view of the object.
// Replace displayForm with your own custom Form or Control.

using (Form displayForm = new Form())
{
displayForm.Text = data.ToString();
windowService.ShowDialog(displayForm);
}
}

// TODO: Add the following to your testing code to test the visualizer:
// 
// Visualizer1.TestShowVisualizer(new SomeType());
// 
/// <summary>
/// Tests the visualizer by hosting it outside of the debugger.
/// </summary>
/// <param name="objectToVisualize">The object to display in the visualizer.</param>
public static void TestShowVisualizer(object objectToVisualize)
{
VisualizerDevelopmentHost visualizerHost = new VisualizerDevelopmentHost(objectToVisualize, typeof(Visualizer1));
visualizerHost.ShowVisualizer();
}
}
