Thread.Location Property
Gets the address at which the thread was executing code at the time the process was stopped for debugging.
Namespace: EnvDTE
Assembly: EnvDTE (in EnvDTE.dll)
Syntax
'Declaration
ReadOnly Property Location As String
'Usage
Dim instance As Thread
Dim value As String
value = instance.Location
string Location { get; }
property String^ Location {
String^ get ();
}
function get Location () : String
Property Value
Type: System.String
A string value representing the address at which the thread was executing code at the time the process was stopped for debugging.
Remarks
If the code being debugged has associated symbols, Location returns a function name. If the code being debugged has no associated symbols, Location returns a numeric address.
Examples
The following example demonstrates how to use the Location property.
To test this property:
Set the breakpoint inside the worker thread callback method.
Run the target application in the debug mode.
When the application stops on the breakpoint, run the add-in.
public static void TestThreadProperties(DTE dte)
{
// Setup debug Output window.
Window w = (Window)dte.Windows.Item(EnvDTE.Constants.vsWindowKindOutput);
w.Visible = true;
OutputWindow ow = (OutputWindow)w.Object;
OutputWindowPane owp = ow.OutputWindowPanes.Add("Thread Test");
owp.Activate();
EnvDTE.Threads threads = dte.Debugger.CurrentProgram.Threads;
owp.OutputString("\nNumber of items in the Thread collection: " +
threads.Item(1).Collection.Count + "\n");
foreach(EnvDTE.Thread thread in threads)
{
owp.OutputString("\nThread: " + thread.ID + " Name: " + thread.Name);
owp.OutputString("\n Edition of the environment : " + thread.DTE.Edition);
owp.OutputString("\n Is alive : " + thread.IsAlive);
owp.OutputString("\n Is frozen : " + thread.IsFrozen);
owp.OutputString("\n Location : " + thread.Location);
owp.OutputString("\n Parent's current mode : " + thread.Parent.CurrentMode);
owp.OutputString("\n Priority : " + thread.Priority);
owp.OutputString("\n Program name : " + thread.Program.Name);
owp.OutputString("\n Number of stack frames : " + thread.StackFrames.Count);
owp.OutputString("\n Suspended number of times : " + thread.SuspendCount);
}
}
