Evaluates an expression, similar to EnvDTE90.Debugger2.GetExpression(System.String,System.Boolean,System.Boolean,System.Int32). However, this method allows the caller to specify the stack frame that the evaluation will occur on. It also allows the caller to specify whether automatic evaluation of properties and implicit function calls should occur.

EnvDTE::Expression GetExpression3(std::wstring const & ExpressionText, EnvDTE::StackFrame const & StackFrame = null, bool UseAutoExpandRules = false, bool TreatAsStatement = false, bool AllowAutoFuncEval = true, int Timeout = -1);

public EnvDTE.Expression GetExpression3 (string ExpressionText, EnvDTE.StackFrame StackFrame = default, bool UseAutoExpandRules = false, bool TreatAsStatement = false, bool AllowAutoFuncEval = true, int Timeout = -1);

Public Function GetExpression3 (ExpressionText As String, Optional StackFrame As StackFrame = Nothing, Optional UseAutoExpandRules As Boolean = false, Optional TreatAsStatement As Boolean = false, Optional AllowAutoFuncEval As Boolean = true, Optional Timeout As Integer = -1) As Expression

Parameters

ExpressionText: String

The expression text to be evaluated.

StackFrame: StackFrame

The stack frame where the expression is to be evaluated. This stack frame can be in any thread of any process that is currently being debugged, if and only if the process is in break mode.

UseAutoExpandRules: Boolean

true if the auto-expand rules should be used; otherwise, false.

TreatAsStatement: Boolean

true if the expression text should be treated as a single statement; otherwise, false.

AllowAutoFuncEval: Boolean

true if automatic evaluation of properties and implicit function calls should be performed; otherwise, false.

Timeout: Int32

The timeout period in milliseconds.

Returns

Expression

An Expression.

Attributes: DispIdAttribute

Remarks

GetExpression3 evaluates an expression based on the specified stack frame. If the expression can be parsed but not evaluated, an object is returned but will not contain a valid value.
