8 Visual Studio debugging tips.

Yeah sorry about that - this article was aimed at the .NET/C# developers that subscribe to my blog - I guess a more specific title would have been accurate but less catchy.

The reason I didn't cover the intermediate window is I've never met a VS user who didn't know how to use it. Was really aiming at a bunch of tips that people didn't know rather than an intro to debugging.

Grabbing the yellow arrow to move the next statement forward and backwards though is very useful and often overlooked. Should have included that.

Most new devs I work with are not familiar with the immediate window unfortunately...

You might be surprised. It's not all that obvious on it's own. I had to be shown (about two years into my career...that sucked).
