DebuggerDisplayAttribute Constructor

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Sub New ( _
    value As String _
)

public DebuggerDisplayAttribute(
    string value
)

Remarks

The value parameter can contain braces ({ and }). The text within a pair of braces is evaluated as the name of a field, property, or method. For example, the following C# code causes "Count = 4" to be displayed when the plus sign (+) is clicked to expand the debugger display for an instance of MyTable.

[c#]

[DebuggerDisplay("Count = {count}")]
class MyTable
{
    public int count = 4;
}

Attributes that are applied to properties referenced in the expression are not processed. For some compilers, a general expression may be allowed that has only implicit access to this reference for the current instance of the target type. The expression is limited; there is no access to aliases, locals, or pointers.
