Visualize “if” in the Visual Studio debugger from BugAid

Following the post Visualization lists in the Visual Studio debugger or a new word from “BugAid For Visual Studio” to clean up the topic, I would like to consider the possibility of extending BugAid to visualize the evaluation of an expression in an if statement.



Suppose there is something like this code:

if (IsError1() || IsError2()) { //   // ... } 

')
and often in the debugger, the programmer wants to know what kind of error was detected: in other words, which function returned true and which function returned false .
You can of course click on the function call, open QuickWatch and see:

and then finish brackets

Total I counted 6 clicks.

Now the same thing with the help of the extension.
Attention: the extensions should work in " Full mode " mode (enabled through the menu).



only 2 clicks (due to automatic addition of brackets)!

Further, if we pass the line c if with the help of the “Step Over (F10)” command, a bug icon will appear.



click on the icon and visualize the calculation of the expression:



click on the arrow and visualize it in a slightly different form:



all the same for simple expression evaluation:




Let's complicate a bit (add parameters to functions):

 bool errorFound = IsError1(xcode) || IsError2(ycode); 

and so on .

as it turns out that all this is written using the "CLR profiler API" .

Igor
