Add an "Add Watch" item to the right-click context menu. #5

Closed matthewrdev closed 6 years ago

matthewrdev commented 6 years ago

As a C# developer, I would like to right-click on a symbol (variable, argument, field etc) and be able to add it to the debugger watch window.

The Add Watch menu item should appear above the expression evaluator menu item.

This actually seems pretty easy to do. Should be in next service release (3.5.1)

Released in v3.5.2

Great addition.

Some minor suggestions -

When performing add watch on say -

error.Code

if "add watch" when within error portion of expression, then add watch for "error" if "add watch" when within .Code portion of expression, then add watch for "error.Code" (walk backwards entire expression)

Also, when adding a watch it would be great if the watch window auto-selected / focused to show your new addition.

Best Matt

Thanks for the feedback Matt.

I'll look into what it will take to make this possible and then I'll make the appropriate changes. Will let you know when the behaviour is done.
