Breakpoint Labels

Within Visual Studio, once you’ve created a breakpoint, you can add one or more labels to it by simply right-clicking and choosing Edit Labels:

edit-breakpoint-label

After adding labels to breakpoints, you can view them in the Breakpoints window:

If you present code at conferences, user groups, etc., you may find labeled breakpoints useful during demos. You can add a label like “Demo 1” to some breakpoints, and “Demo 2” to others. Toggle which breakpoints are enabled when you run your application in order to demonstrate different topics.
