Debugger - Visualizer (VS2005) [modified]
-
I'm trying to better visualise my class in the Debugger. I noticed that in VS2005 a new/great feature was introduced to help visualise containers (STL and ATL) in debugger. By this it is easy/fast to display important data from complex classes. Unfortunately, I can't visualise one stuff. I have a class B with a member variable A* m_ptr. If I edit the autoexp.dat file \ [AutoExpand] section "B=ptr=< m_ptr, t >" then the magic "t" make sure that if the m_ptr is an instance of class C which is derived from class A the debugger displays it as ptr=[C]. This is great so far. However I would like to do similar thing in [Visualizer] section:
A{ preview ( #( $e.m_ptr ) ) )Since there are no official documentation for the syntax I don't know how to put the magic "t" to the preview section so the debugger will display the real instnace of the member pointer. Currently it just displays the pointer address :-( Any idea how to do this? Or any documentation? Many thanx, Abyss -- modified at 13:52 Friday 6th October, 2006
