Examples

The following example demonstrates how to use the P:EnvDTE.StackFrame.Locals property.

public static void TestStackFrames(DTE dte)  
{  
    // Setup debug Output window.  
    Window w = (Window)dte.Windows.Item(EnvDTE.Constants.vsWindowKindOutput);  
    w.Visible = true;  
    OutputWindow ow = (OutputWindow)w.Object;  
    OutputWindowPane owp = ow.OutputWindowPanes.Add("Stack Frames Test");  
    owp.Activate();  

    EnvDTE.StackFrames stackFrames = dte.Debugger.CurrentThread.StackFrames;  
    owp.OutputString("\nNumber of items in the Current Stack collection: " +   
                     stackFrames.Item(1).Collection.Count + "\n");  

    foreach(EnvDTE.StackFrame sf in stackFrames)  
    {  
        owp.OutputString("\nStack Frame: " + sf.FunctionName);  
        owp.OutputString("\n  Edition of the environment : " + sf.DTE.Edition);  
        owp.OutputString("\n  Language                   : " + sf.Language);  
        owp.OutputString("\n  Locals");  
        EnvDTE.Expressions expressions = sf.Locals;  
        foreach(EnvDTE.Expression exp in expressions)  
            owp.OutputString("\n    " + exp.Name + " = " + exp.Value);  
        owp.OutputString("\n  Module                     : " + sf.Module);  
        owp.OutputString("\n  Current Thread ID          : " + sf.Parent.ID);  
        owp.OutputString("\n  Return Type                : " + sf.ReturnType);  
    }  
}  

Shared Sub TestStackFrames(ByRef dte As EnvDTE.DTE)  
    Dim str As String

            str += vbCrLf + "    " + exp.Name + " = " + exp.Value.ToString()  
        Next  
        str += vbCrLf + "  Module: " + sf.Module
