Interface IWatchExpressionFactoryAdapter
-
All Known Subinterfaces:
-
IWatchExpressionFactoryAdapterExtension
-
public interface IWatchExpressionFactoryAdapter
An optional adapter used to create a watch expression for a selected variable.
The 'Create Watch Expression' action is enabled for instances of
IVariable that have an associated
IWatchExpressionDelegate registered
for that debug model.
When a watch expression factory adapter is available for a variable, the factory is
consulted to create a watch expression for that variable. When no adapter is provided,
the watch expression is generated based on the variable's name.
Also see the optional interface
IWatchExpressionFactoryAdapterExtension.
Clients may implement this interface.
