Not able to track the changing value of a parameter
Oct 01, 2017 10:30 PM|Gleeming|LINK
I am using Visual Studio professional VS 2012. When my application runs, somewhere, somehow a certain boolean variable is being changed from true to false. I have set breakpoints everywhere the variable is assigned a value. The break points for the variable are not being hit though when the value changes? I also placed a quick watch on the variable to show me when the assigned value changes, however it only shows the first time the value changes and nothing after that? I am a little lost in regards to the strategy to debug this, if my watch window is not working and my breakpoints are not getting hit, The boolean value in question is a public member of a class, and is referenced by a class object. It is not static.I am stuck, Can someone good at debugging using Visual studio help me out here?

Hi Gleeming,
By default, execution breaks every time that a breakpoint is hit.
If the breakpoint is not hit, I assume because of some logical conditions, the code is not executed.
