Core Interfaces

The following interfaces are the core interfaces for extending debugger by using the Visual Studio SDK.

Discussion

These interfaces are primarily used to create the debug engine (DE). They are organized here by categories:

  • Breakpoints

  • Contexts

  • Core Server

  • Debug Engines

  • Documents

  • Events

  • Expressions

  • Memory

  • Modules

  • Ports

  • Processes

  • Programs

  • Properties

  • Stack Frames

  • Threads

  • Type Visualizers

The entities that can implement the interfaces are:

  • Debug Engine (DE)

  • Port Supplier (PS)

  • Expression Evaluator (EE)

  • Visual Studio (VS)

Breakpoints

These interfaces are related to the implementation and tracking of breakpoints.
