Conditional C# breakpoint?

问题:

I'm debugging a foreach loop which will iterate well over 1000 times - so I only want a breakpoint within the loop to break for a particular item.

So...

foreach(Employee employee in employees)
{
//DO SOMETHING
//BREAK HERE WHEN employee.Id == '2342'
//DO SOMETHING ELSE
}

Do I have to write an If statement and some dummy code within it and break it that way? That the only way?

回答1:

Just adding to the previous answers. Use Conditional Breakpoints.

You can specify the condition like below

回答2:

if (employee.Id == '2342') Debugger.Break();

Alternatively, you can set a conditional breakpoint in VS, but from my experience, that is incredibly slow.

回答3:

If you're using anything other than the express editions of VS right click on the breakpoint and click Set Condition.

Personally I'd use this approach as I'd consider it bad practice to modify your code to debug it.

Otherwise you're forced to do it your way.

回答4:

Use a VS debugger with conditional breakpoint, via UI.

The easiest and fastest way imo.

You can use conditional breakpoints in Visual Studio.

Right click on the breakpoint and choose conditional and then put in your clause.
