In order to view the stack frames of the call stack during break mode , you must implement the EnumFrameInfo method.
Methods for Evaluation
For a simple debug engine (DE), there might be only one stack frame. To examine the stack frame during break mode, you must implement the following methods of IDebugStackFrame2.
| Method | Description |
|---|---|
| GetCodeContext | Gets the code context for a stack frame. The code context represents the current instruction pointer in a stack frame. |
| GetDocumentContext | Gets the document context for a stack frame. The document context represents the current location in the source code for a stack frame. Required for viewing the source code when you are stopped in a program. |
These methods require implementation of several context-related interfaces and methods. Thus, you must implement the GetDocumentContext method and the following methods of IDebugDocumentContext2.
| Method | Description |
|---|---|
| GetStatementRange | Gets the file statement range of a document context. |
To enumerate code contexts, you must implement all the methods of IEnumDebugCodeContexts2.
