If you have two monitors, which you should, then drag the form into one monitor and observe the debugging in the other monitor(the one with the VS IDE running). This works for most forms and website debugging.

I have never needed to interrupt a debugging session....ever. Not to say that someone out there doesn't need to do this. I just isolate the code that needs to be debugged, and set breakpoints there, or start from the beginning of the code path, if I need to broaden my scope.

What I do is set a breakpoint close to where the action that I want to observe is going to take place and then run the application. use F10 to advance line by line, and F11 to step into methods. If you need to observe a collection or object variable then just right click on the variable and select Quick Watch...

Go to Youtube and search for .net VS debugging tips and how to videos, if you think that would help you learn more about this.

Edit: You can also use "Run to cursor" if you want to skip sections of code and not have to debug the code line by line. Just place your cursor somewhere further in the code path, and then right click and select run to cursor. I use this a lot to jump over loops or to skip larger areas of code that I don't need to see.

You can also drag the yellow arrow on the left side of the code viewer to a desired code path that has already executed, and repeat "most" code execution again, if needed. This is not good for all scenarios because variables and values can change during the first pass of the code execution. I use this sometimes when debugging Unit Tests, and I want to run the test again without stepping out of the debugger instance.

Also, look into conditional expressions when debugging as well - where applicable.

But what I have asked is that I have read that you can press F9 and for debugging. Then "Interrupt" is pressed, the line of code is modified and "Continue" is pressed. However "Interrupt" is disabled. That's why I have to stop and restart every time and so for years.

On the other hand, to see the hidden code below the form, do I need two monitors? Then it does not serve me because it is not practical and it would be easier an option, which does not exist, to hide the form.

I stay as I was uninformed.

Thanks for your effort, does anyone have more information? I am finding many bugs to Microsoft with so many years, so many resources and so many smart people. A little comment. In the latest version of "Visual Studio" the only difference is that it is called 2015, the rest is the same.

And if you read my blog about Windows 10 you'd be surprised at the number of glitches, apart from being a spyware program in its entirety.

Congratulations to all of you. I have taken note of a great sentence that I have been given:

"It is a question of being in the right place and at the right time to do what is right."

It's not really clear if you know this, but F9 doesn't stop the code from running. It sets a breakpoint on the line the cursor is on in the code editor. When execution gets to that line the code stops running at that point. That's when you can inspect variable contents, stack trace, and see what's going on.

As Slacker007 said, use another monitor. If that isn't available, try re-sizing if available.
I believe what you're looking for is Edit and Continue. You need to enable it in Tools > Options > Debugging > Edit and Continue.

More information can be found here. Best of luck!

Re: Common Variables in Main, Dlls, and Functions in .cs

7-Jan-17 21:11

I have many functions that employ some global variables that are common to all such functions, such as the language variable, to display error messages in the proper language.

I want to make various compiled dlls which in turn employs those functions. If those variables are in a global structure, when I create a main that uses the dll, in the main i have to define that structure or include the same .cs and, in that way, there are two different copies of that structure with the same name. That produces the error CS0433.

I can define a structure in the dll and in the Main I can use it, making a copy of the Main variables to the dll structure. But then if on the Main changes one of the variables, The dll does not have the updated value, I have to do it with every dll I use. Now you think the problem is bigger if there is more than one dll. That is impractical.

I continue with the problem not solved and raised in:
Https://www.codeproject.com/Forums/1649/Csharp.aspx?fid=1649&df=90&mpp=25&sort=Position&spc=Relaxed&view=Normal&fr=51#xx0xx

Can anyone make a practical example? Thank you.

Most unlikely since what you are trying to do does not make sense. As I told you before in your original question, you need to rethink your design. If a DLL requires special parameters supplied by the main program then you need to add a method to the DLL to receive those parameters and use them to produce whatever customised results are required. There is no reason why you should ever require two versions of the same source module or structure to make this work.

Re: Common Variables in Main, Dlls, and Functions in .cs

8-Jan-17 0:21

I'm already rethinking my design, what I do not know is how to do it. This matter is not well finished technically.

Focusing and exposing this topic is difficult.

1.- I have some functions in .cs files that I use in both Main and functions .cs and DLLs. These functions use a structure with some variables of general use. In order to compile those functions for the Main or if I want to create a dll, the structure must exist for functions such as in a .cs file. Imagine that in the cs the structure is called Name_Common.Cls_Common.StCommon

2.- When using Main, I need to add the definition of that structure of the same .cs That already produces the mentioned error of ambiguity. But if I want with an alias to refer to the structure of the dlls, I have to enter the variables every time from Main in each structure of each dll, being in Main with alias: using Name_Common_Main = Dll.Name_Common for the first dll. But, and for the second dll? I can not add another using or if? And those variables, when they are not global, when they change their value will not be updated.

I'm stuck, mentally and by software. How do people do?

Richard MacCutchan8-Jan-17 1:28

Re: Common Variables in Main, Dlls, and Functions in .cs

8-Jan-17 1:28

One of the first questions you need to ask is whether you actually need a DLL in the first place. Will this DLL be used by other applications, or is it specific only to this one? If the latter, then you probably do not need to separate out the methods it provides.

As to the rest, I still cannot quite grasp what it is that you are trying to achieve. Using a structure to pass data between classes or methods does not need to be over complicated. It is just a matter of providing all the right information in the right place at the right time. As to variables changing during the lifecycle of an application, this can easily be captured by the use of events and delegates.

Hi, can someone please point me to a tutorial on unit testing MVC controller code that implements dependency injection, Repository and Unit of Work design patterns.

In particular I would like to learn how to do Mocking.

Thanks

Hi, thanks for replying. I already looked for the past couple of days, I did not find any that talked about all three concepts (Dependency Injection, Repository and Unit of Work, and Mock) in the same tutorial.

I have seen tutorials on unit testing MVC controller methods but they were lacking what I'm looking for. None of them were using Dependency Injection or Mocking.

There are a lot of concepts and patterns. It is impossible to create tutorials for each possible combination thereof, and so there's a big chance it does not exist.

Tutorials usually focus a single concept to explain that, without adding stuff that might distract from it.

Find a tutorial on each concept, and combine that knowledge.

Re: I want to replace number in two tag to double with regex in a file txt

I'm kinda confused as to exactly what you are trying to achieve - and the text description doesn't match the code test strings at all, which doesn't help. And that code doesn't make a lot of sense either...

So take a deep breath, and show us a single sample input string and the output you expect to get from it. When we understand exactly what you are trying to do, we can probably help you - but at the moment I'm really confused about what you are trying to get as a result and can't solve this for you.

I want to replace number in two tag <TD></TD> to double with regex

exemple:

<TD>5</TD>

output

<TD>5.00</TD>

OK. So you want to locate a TD tag, which contains an integer value?
That's an easy regex:

(?<=<TD>)\d+(?=</TD>)

And replacing those with the floating point equivalent is just as easy:

string input = @"<TD>45</TD><TD>4.5</TD><TD>45</TD>";
string output = Regex.Replace(input, @"(?<=<TD>)\d+(?=</TD>)", @"$&.00");

Which will give you:

<TD>45.00</TD><TD>4.5</TD><TD>45.00</TD>

Is that what you are looking for?

See how much easier if it's when you ask the right question? Laugh | :laugh:
