Visual Studio 2010 is one of most awesome tool to debug Microsoft.NET related code. I have found one more interesting feature with the Visual studio 2010. That is called Pin Data Tip feature. This features can be very useful when you are debugging the code with loops. Normally when you debug with the code if you want to know the value of variable then you have to put your cursor on that variable and tool tip will show the values of that variable. The pin feature will pin that tool tip and you don't have to put mouse over there. Let's take a simple example to examine that feature. Below is the code for that. I have created a simple for loop and I am printing variable value with Response.Write on asp.net page. Below is the code for that.
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.UI;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
namespace Blogging
{
public partial class _Default : System.Web.UI.Page
{
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
for (int i = 1; i <= 20; i++)
{
Response.Write(i.ToString());
}
}
}
}
Now let's put the break point on for loop like following and then start debugging via pressing F5.
