If your code has native frames that are invisible in the Call Stack window, stepping out of managed code can produce unexpected results. As a workaround, you can use a breakpoint instead of Step Out.

The dialog boxes and menu commands you see might differ from those described in Help depending on your active settings or edition. To change your settings, choose Import and Export Settings on the Tools menu. For more information, see Customizing Development Settings in Visual Studio.

To step out of managed code when native frames are missing from the call stack display

  1. In the native code, set a location breakpoint after the call to managed code.

  2. On the Debug menu, choose Continue.

    When the managed call is completed, execution will stop at the breakpoint in native code.
