Property Value

Type: EnvDTE.dbgBreakpointType
A dbgBreakpointType constant, specifying the type of breakpoint.

Examples

The following example demonstrates how to use the Type property.

To test this property:

1. Set a breakpoint in the target application.

2. Set various breakpoint properties in Properties/Hit Count Dialog Box.

3. Run the add-in.

public static void Type(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("Type Property Test: ");
    owp.Activate();

    // dte is a reference to the DTE object passed to you by the
    // OnConnection method that you implement when you create an add-in.
    EnvDTE.Debugger debugger = (EnvDTE.Debugger)dte.Debugger;
    owp.OutputString("HitCountTarget: " + 
                        debugger.Breakpoints.Item(1).HitCountTarget);
    owp.OutputString("\nHitCountType: " + 
                        debugger.Breakpoints.Item(1).HitCountType);
    owp.OutputString("\nLocationType: " + 
                        debugger.Breakpoints.Item(1).LocationType);
    owp.OutputString("\nName: " + debugger.Breakpoints.Item(1).Name);
    debugger.Breakpoints.Item(1).Tag = "My Breakpoint";
    owp.OutputString("\nTag: " + debugger.Breakpoints.Item(1).Tag);
    owp.OutputString("\nType: " + debugger.Breakpoints.Item(1).Type); 
}

Shared Sub Type(ByRef dte As EnvDTE.DTE)
    Dim strHitCountTarget As String
    Dim strHitCountType As String
    Dim strLocationType As String
    Dim strName As String
    Dim strType As String

    strHitCountTarget = dte.Debugger.Breakpoints.Item(1).HitCountTarget.ToString()
    strHitCountType = dte.Debugger.Breakpoints.Item(1).HitCountType.ToString()
    strLocationType = dte.Debugger.Breakpoints.Item(1).LocationType.ToString()
    strName = dte.Debugger.Breakpoints.Item(1).Name.ToString()
    strType = dte.Debugger.Breakpoints.Item(1).Type.ToString()
    dte.Debugger.Breakpoints.Item(1).Tag = "My Breakpoint"
    strTag = dte.Debugger.Breakpoints.Item(1).Tag.ToString()
    MessageBox.Show("HitCountTarget: " + strHitCountTarget + vbCrLf + _

                    "Type: " + strType + vbCrLf + _
                    "Tag: " + strTag + vbCrLf)
