Debugger.CurrentProcess Property
Sets or gets the active process.
Namespace: EnvDTE
Assembly: EnvDTE (in EnvDTE.dll)
Syntax
'Declaration
Property CurrentProcess As Process
Process CurrentProcess { get; set; }
property Process^ CurrentProcess {
Process^ get ();
void set (Process^ value);
}
abstract CurrentProcess : Process with get, set
function get CurrentProcess () : Process
function set CurrentProcess (value : Process)
Property Value
Type: EnvDTE.Process
A Process object.
Remarks
CurrentProcess sets or returns the active Process. The active process is the process that defines the data displayed by the debugger. Although the debugger supports debugging more than one process at a time, only one process can be active at any given time. See Debugging Multiple Processes for more information.
Examples
The following example demonstrates how to use the CurrentProcess property.
To test this property:
Open the target application. Run the add-in. No process is being debugged.
Set a breakpoint in the target application. Run the application in the debug mode.
When the program stops on the breakpoint, run the add-in. The process is being debugged.
public static void CurrentProcess(DTE dte)
{
// Setup the 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("Current Process Test");
owp.Activate();
owp.OutputString("Current Process Info: ");
EnvDTE.Process process = dte.Debugger.CurrentProcess;
if(process == null)
owp.OutputString("No process is being debugged");
else
owp.OutputString("Process ID = " + process.ProcessID +
" Process Name = " + process.Name);
}
Shared Sub CurrentProcess(ByRef dte As EnvDTE.DTE)
Dim process As EnvDTE.Process = dte.Debugger.CurrentProcess
If process Is Nothing Then
MessageBox.Show("No process is being debugged", "Debugger Test")
Else
MessageBox.Show("Process ID = " + process.ProcessID.ToString() + _
" Process Name = " + process.Name, "Debugger Test")
End If
