Debugger3::HexInputMode Property

 

Gets or sets a value that indicates whether the expressions are evaluated in hexadecimal or decimal format.

Namespace:   EnvDTE90
Assembly:  EnvDTE90 (in EnvDTE90.dll)

property bool HexInputMode {
	bool get();
	void set(bool value);
}

Property Value

Type: System::Boolean

A Boolean that is true if hexadecimal format; otherwise, false.

Use this property to determine or set whether expressions are evaluated in hexadecimal or decimal format. It directly corresponds to the setting in the General, Debugging, Options dialog box.

For more information, see Expressions in the Debugger.

The following example shows how to use the HexInputMode property.

public static void HexInputMode(EnvDTE80.DTE2 dte)
{
    // Setup debug Output window.
    Window w = 
    (Window)dte.Windows.Item(EnvDTE.Constants.vsWindowKindOutput);
    w.Visible = true;
    OutputWindow ow = (OutputWindow)w.Object;
    OutputWindowPane owp = ow.OutputWindowPanes.Add("Hex Input Mode 
    Test");
    owp.Activate();

    EnvDTE90.Debugger3 debugger = (EnvDTE90.Debugger3)dte.Debugger;

    debugger.HexInputMode = false;
    debugger.HexDisplayMode = true;
    EnvDTE.Expression exp = debugger.GetExpression("length", true, 1);
    owp.OutputString("Value of variable length in hex: " + exp.Value);

    debugger.HexInputMode = true;
    debugger.HexDisplayMode = false;
    exp = debugger.GetExpression("length", true, 1);
    owp.OutputString("\nValue of variable length in decimal: " + 
    exp.Value);
}
