Fields

Name Value Description
ModalDialog 0

The debugger visualizer is shown as a modal dialog. Visual Studio users won't be able to unpause the debug session while the visualizer is open, which guarantees that the visualized value never changes during the lifetime of the visualizer. This simplifies the implementation of the visualizer: modal debugger visualizers don't need to subdcribe to VisualizerTarget.StateChanged.

ToolWindow 1

The debugger visualizer is shown as a tool window which can persist across multiple cycles of unpausing/pausing the debug session. Tool window debugger visualizers should subscribe to the VisualizerTarget.StateChanged event.
