This option defaults to <code>false</code>.</li> <li><code>csharp.debug.logging.processExit</code> - Controls if a message is logged when the target process exits, or debugging is stopped. This option defaults to <code>true</code>.</li> <li><code>csharp.debug.suppressJITOptimizations</code> - If true, when an optimized module (.dll compiled in the Release configuration) loads in the target process, the debugger asks the Just-In-Time compiler to generate code with optimizations disabled. <a href="/docs/csharp/debugger-settings#_suppress-jit-optimizations">More information</a></li> <li><code>csharp.debug.symbolOptions.searchPaths</code> - Array of symbol server URLs (example: <code>http://MyExampleSymbolServer</code>) or directories (example: /build/symbols) to search for .pdb files. These directories will be searched in addition to the default locations next to the module and the path where the pdb was originally dropped to.</li> <li><code>csharp.debug.symbolOptions.searchMicrosoftSymbolServer</code> - If <code>true</code> the Microsoft Symbol server (<code>https://msdl.microsoft.com/download/symbols</code>) is added to the symbols search path.

You can set your breakpoint to break when expression evaluates to true.</p> <p><img src="/assets/docs/csharp/debugging/conditional-breakpoint.gif" alt="Conditional Breakpoints" loading="lazy"></p> <h3 id="_breakpoint-function-breakpoint" data-needslink="_breakpoint-function-breakpoint">Breakpoint - Function Breakpoint</h3> <p>The debugger also supports functional breakpoints. You can set your breakpoint to break on the specific function by clicking on the <code>+</code> in the Breakpoints section of the Debug pane.</p> <p><img src="/assets/docs/csharp/debugging/function-breakpoint.gif" alt="Function Breakpoints" loading="lazy"></p> <h3 id="_breakpoint-logpoints" data-needslink="_breakpoint-logpoints">Breakpoint - Logpoints</h3> <p>Logpoints (also known as Tracepoints in Visual Studio) allow you to send output to Debug Console without editing code. They're different from breakpoints because they don't stop the execution flow of your application.</p> <p>To add a Logpoint, right-click in the far-left margin next to a line of code. Select <strong>Add Logpoint</strong> and type the message you want to log. Any expression between curly braces ('{' and '}') will be evaluated when the Logpoint is hit.</p> <p>The following tokens are also supported in the log message:</p> <table class="table table-striped"> <thead> <tr> <th>Token</th> <th>Description</th> <th>Example Output</th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr> <td>$FILEPOS</td> <td>Current source file location</td> <td>C:\sources\repos\Project\Program.cs:4</td> </tr> <tr> <td>$FUNCTION</td> <td>Current function name</td> <td>Program.<Main>$</td> </tr> <tr> <td>$ADDRESS</td> <td>Current instruction</td> <td>0x00007FFF83A54001</td> </tr> <tr> <td>$TID</td> <td>Thread ID</td> <td>20668</td> </tr> <tr> <td>$PID</td> <td>Process ID</td> <td>10028</td> </tr> <tr> <td>$TNAME</td> <td>Thread name</td> <td><No Thread Name></td> </tr> <tr> <td>$PNAME</td> <td>Process name</td> <td>C:\sources\repos\Project\bin\Debug\net7.0\console.exe</td> </tr> <tr> <td>$CALLER</td> <td>Calling function name</td> <td>void console.dll!Program.Foo()</td> </tr> <tr> <td>$CALLSTACK</td> <td>Call stack</td> <td>void console.dll!Program.Bar() <br>void console.dll!Program.Foo()<br>void console.dll!Program.<Main>$(string[] args) <br> [External Code]</td> </tr> <tr> <td>$TICK</td> <td>Tick count (from Windows GetTickCount)</td> <td>28194046</td> </tr> <tr> <td>$HITCOUNT</td> <td>Number of times this breakpoint has been hit</td> <td>5</td> </tr> </tbody> </table> <p><img src="/assets/docs/csharp/debugging/logmessage-breakpoint.gif" alt="LogMessage Breakpoint" loading="lazy"></p> <h3 id="_breakpoint-triggered-breakpoints" data-needslink="_breakpoint-triggered-breakpoints">Breakpoint - Triggered breakpoints</h3> <p>A triggered breakpoint is a breakpoint that is automatically enabled once another breakpoint is hit. They can be very useful when diagnosing failure cases in code that happen only after a certain precondition.</p> <p>Triggered breakpoints can be set by right-clicking on the glyph margin, selecting <strong>Add Triggered Breakpoint</strong>, and then choosing which other breakpoint enables the breakpoint.</p> <p><video src="/assets/docs/editor/debugging/debug-triggered-breakpoint.mp4" autoplay loop controls muted></video></p> <h2 id="_stopping-on-exceptions" data-needslink="_stopping-on-exceptions">Stopping on exceptions</h2> <p>The C# debugger supports configuration options for when the debugger stops when exceptions are thrown or caught. This is done through two different entries in the <strong>BREAKPOINTS</strong> section of the <strong>Run</strong> view:</p> <p><img src="/assets/docs/csharp/debugging/exception-settings.gif" alt="Exceptions settings in BREAKPOINTS Run View" loading="lazy"></p> <p>Note that the <strong>BREAKPOINTS</strong> section will be missing these entries until the first time that the folder has been debugged with the C# debugger.</p> <p>Checking <strong>All Exceptions</strong> will configure the debugger to stop when an exception is thrown. If <a href="/docs/csharp/debugger-settings#_just-my-code">Just My Code</a> is enabled (which it is by default), the debugger will not break if an exception is internally thrown and caught in library code. However, if the exception is thrown in library code and returned to user code, the debugger will break.</p> <p>Checking <strong>User-Unhandled Exceptions</strong> will configure the debugger to stop when an exception is caught in non-user code after having been thrown in user code or traveled through user code. Exceptions that become user-unhandled aren't always a bug in the process being debugged -- it could be that user code is implementing an API and is expected to raise an exception. In many cases there is an actual problem, so, by default, the debugger will stop when an exception becomes user-unhandled.</p> <h3 id="_exception-conditions" data-needslink="_exception-conditions">Exception Conditions</h3> <p>Both checkboxes support conditions to break on only selected exception types. To edit the condition, select the pencil icon (see image above) or right-click on the entry and invoke <strong>Edit Condition</strong>. The condition is a comma-separated list of exception types to break on, or if the list starts with '!', a list of exception types to ignore.</p> <p>Examples conditions:</p> <table class="table table-striped"> <thead> <tr> <th>Example condition value</th> <th>Result</th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr> <td>System.NullReferenceException</td> <td>This will only break on null reference exceptions.</td> </tr> <tr> <td>System.NullReferenceException, System.InvalidOperationException</td> <td>This will break on both null reference exceptions and invalid operation exceptions.</td> </tr> <tr> <td>!System.Threading.Tasks.TaskCanceledException</td> <td>This will break on all exceptions except for task canceled.</td> </tr> <tr> <td>!System.Threading.Tasks.TaskCanceledException, System.NotImplementedException</td> <td>This will break on all exceptions except for task canceled and not implemented.</td> </tr> </tbody> </table> <h2 id="_expression-evaluation" data-needslink="_expression-evaluation">Expression evaluation</h2> <p>The debugger also lets you evaluate expressions in the <strong>WATCH</strong> window as well as the Debug Console.</p> <h2 id="_hot-reload" data-needslink="_hot-reload">Hot Reload</h2> <p>With the C# Dev Kit extension installed, the debugger allows you to apply C# code changes while debugging.</p> <p><img src="/assets/docs/csharp/debugging/hotreload-toolbar.png" alt="Hot Reload displayed in the debugging toolbar" loading="lazy"></p> <p>In order to enable Hot Reload, <code>csharp.experimental.debug.hotReload</code> must be set to true, see <a href="#_user-settings">User settings</a> for more information.

You can apply code changes while debugging regardless if you are stopped at a breakpoint or the program is running.</p> <p>As of November 2023, some features such as <code>MetadataUpdateHandler</code>, which enables ASP.NET Core applications to automatically refresh the browser <a href="https://learn.microsoft.com/dotnet/api/system.reflection.metadata.metadataupdatehandlerattribute?view=net-8.0" class="external-link" target="_blank">after a change is made</a>, are not available yet. Applying code changes without debugging is also not supported.</p> <p>The runtime added support for applying changes while debugging on Linux/macOS in .NET 8, so a runtime version of .NET 8+ is required when applying code changes for .NET apps running on these operating systems.</p> <table class="table table-striped"> <thead> <tr> <th>Application Type</th> <th>Supports Hot Reload with C# Dev Kit</th> <th>.NET 8+ Required</th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr> <td>Console</td> <td>✅</td> <td>Linux/macOS Only</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Test Projects</td> <td>✅</td> <td>Linux/macOS Only</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Class Library Projects</td> <td>✅</td> <td>Linux/macOS Only</td> </tr> <tr> <td>ASP.NET Core</td> <td>⚠️* <em>Currently only supports changes on <code>.cs</code> files</em></td> <td>Linux/macOS Only</td> </tr> <tr> <td>MAUI</td> <td>❌* <em>Available soon</em></td> <td>--</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Unity</td> <td>❌</td> <td>--</td> </tr> </tbody> </table> <p>See <a href="/docs/csharp/cs-dev-kit-faq#_what-project-types-are-currently-supported">supported projects</a> for more information on projects currently supported by C# Dev Kit.
