VS has no trouble at all telling me the statement that caused the NRE and I can inspect variables local to the lambda as well.
- pionar 10y agoBut you can't always debug code that's out in the wild with the same exact scenario that caused the NRE. It's helpful to have the actual thing that's null for post-error troubleshooting.
- ygra 10y agoThe whole discussion is about a debugger feature, or at least, the runtime groundwork required for said debugger feature. It will not result in the exception message telling you the null reference's name. It enables an attached debugger to query the runtime for additional information to determine that.
