View contents of object while debug

[haezeban]

Hey,

 

I have an object Client, and that object has an object address and different other property�s (like name, age,.... all sting, int�s,..).

 

While debugging and passing with the cursor over Client.Name you will see Client.Name = �Johnny�, also you see the contents of the other property�s.

But for the property address (which is another object) you will see only the name off that object -> Client.Address = {Namespace1.Address}.

 

Is it possible to see also the contents of that object while passing the cursor. For example when I pass I will see the contents of the zip-code of that object address.

Now we have always to use �QuickWatch� to see that.

 

I looked already in using attributes �DedfaultProperty� but no luck.

 

 

Thanks for help.

I usuually use the Command Window.

I usuually use the Command Window.

I think that the idea is for something quicker and easier.

 

As far as I know, there is no way to modify what is displayed in these tooltips.

 

I think that these tooltips should display the return of the .ToString function. The default implementation of the .ToString function returns exactly what you would see in these tooltips, but this would provide you with the ability to customize the tooltips and provide more meaningful, convinient information. Unfortunately, this is not the case.

Debug/Windows/Locals

 

Use it all the time.

 

You can drill down into any local object.
