Debugger.StepOut Method

Steps out of the current function.

Namespace:  EnvDTE
Assembly:  EnvDTE (in EnvDTE.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Sub StepOut ( _
    WaitForBreakOrEnd As Boolean _
)
void StepOut(
    bool WaitForBreakOrEnd
)
void StepOut(
    [InAttribute] bool WaitForBreakOrEnd
)
abstract StepOut : 
        WaitForBreakOrEnd:bool -> unit
function StepOut(
    WaitForBreakOrEnd : boolean
)

Parameters

  • WaitForBreakOrEnd
    Type: System.Boolean

    Set to true if this function call should wait until either Break mode or Design mode is entered before returning. Set to false if you want this call to return immediately after causing the debugger to begin execution. Upon return the debugger could be in Design, Break, or Run modes.

Remarks

StepOut steps out of the current function. See <PAVE OVER> Code Stepping Overview for more information.

Examples

The following example demonstrates how to use the StepOut method.

To test this method:

  1. Set a breakpoint inside the function in the target application.

  2. Run the target application in Debug mode.

  3. When the application stops at the breakpoint, run the add-in.

public static void StepOut(DTE dte)
{
    EnvDTE.Debugger debugger = (EnvDTE.Debugger)dte.Debugger;
    debugger.StepOut(true);
}
Shared Sub StepOut(ByRef dte As EnvDTE.DTE)
    dte.Debugger. StepOut(True)
End Sub
