IDebugExpression2

This interface represents a parsed expression ready for binding and evaluating.

IDebugExpression2 : IUnknown

Notes for Implementers

The debug engine (DE) implements this interface to represent a parsed expression ready to be evaluated.

Notes for Callers

A call to IDebugExpressionContext2::ParseText returns this interface. IDebugStackFrame2::GetExpressionContext returns the IDebugExpressionContext2 interface. These interfaces are accessible only when the program being debugged has been paused and a stack frame is available.

Methods in Vtable Order

The following table shows the methods of IDebugExpression2.

Method

Description

IDebugExpression2::EvaluateAsync

Evaluates this expression asynchronously.

IDebugExpression2::Abort

Ends asynchronous expression evaluation.

IDebugExpression2::EvaluateSync

Evaluates this expression synchronously.

Remarks

When a program has halted, the session debug manager (SDM) obtains a stack frame from the DE with a call to IDebugThread2::EnumFrameInfo. The SDM then calls IDebugStackFrame2::GetExpressionContext to get the IDebugExpressionContext2 interface. This is followed by a call to IDebugExpressionContext2::ParseText to create the IDebugExpression2 interface, which represents the parsed expression ready to be evaluated.

The SDM calls either IDebugExpression2::EvaluateSync or IDebugExpression2::EvaluateAsync to actually evaluate the expression and produce a value.

In an implementation of IDebugExpressionContext2::ParseText, the DE uses COM's CoCreateInstance function to instantiate an expression evaluator and get an IDebugExpressionEvaluator interface (see the Example in the IDebugExpressionEvaluator interface). The DE then calls IDebugExpressionEvaluator::Parse to obtain an IDebugParsedExpression interface. This interface is used in the implementation of IDebugExpression2::EvaluateSync and IDebugExpression2::EvaluateAsync to perform the evaluation.
