Examples

The following example demonstrates how to use the FileColumn property.

public static void FileColumn(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("FileColumn Property Test: ");  
    owp.Activate();  

    EnvDTE.Debugger debugger = (EnvDTE.Debugger)dte.Debugger;  
    owp.OutputString("Breakpoint in the file " + debugger.Breakpoints.Item(1).File);  
    owp.OutputString(" on line " +   
                     debugger.Breakpoints.Item(1).FileLine.ToString() + " column ");  
    owp.OutputString(debugger.Breakpoints.Item(1).FileColumn.ToString() + " is ");  
    owp.OutputString(debugger.Breakpoints.Item(1).Enabled ? "enabled." : "disabled.");  
    owp.OutputString("\nThis breakpoint is in the function: " +   
                     debugger.Breakpoints.Item(1).FunctionName);  
}  
Shared Sub FileColumn(ByRef dte As EnvDTE.DTE)  
    Dim strFile As String  
    Dim strFileLine As String  
    Dim strFileColumn As String  
    Dim strEnabled As String  
    Dim boolEnabled As Boolean  

    dte.Debugger.StepInto(True)  
    dte.Debugger.Breakpoints.Add("", "Target001.cs", 15, 1, "", _  
                                 EnvDTE.dbgBreakpointConditionType.dbgBreakpointConditionTypeWhenTrue, _  
                                 "C#", "", 0, "", 0, EnvDTE.dbgHitCountType.dbgHitCountTypeNone)  
    strFile = dte.Debugger.Breakpoints.Item(1).File.ToString()  
    strFileLine = dte.Debugger.Breakpoints.Item(1).FileLine.ToString()  
    strFileColumn = dte.Debugger.Breakpoints.Item(1).FileColumn.ToString()  
    boolEnabled = dte.Debugger.Breakpoints.Item(1).Enabled  
    If boolEnabled = True Then  
        strEnabled = "enabled"  
    Else  
        strEnabled = "disabled"  
    End If  

    MessageBox.Show("Breakpoint in the file " + strFile + vbCrLf + _  
                    "on line " + strFileLine + " column " + strFileColumn + _  
                    " is " + strEnabled + ".")  
End Sub  

Remarks

The return value is specified in the Character box of the File, New Breakpoint Dialog Box dialog box.
