This reminds me of how spoilt I am, with features such as edit-and-continue in Visual Studio. Doing some work recently with a more modern project that uses lambdas, edit and continue is not supported for code in lambdas. I miss the more interactive mode of writing code while executing it in the debugger. A more modern version of a REPL if you will.

- narrator 12y agoYou can do this with eclipse if you're just changing the body of the function. The JRebel plugin lets you change just about anything and continue.
- joshschreuder 12y agoVS2015 will have the ability to watch the result of lambdas in debug mode, not sure about edit and continue however. http://blogs.msdn.com/b/visualstudioalm/archive/2014/11/12/support-for-debugging-lambda-expressions-with-visual-studio-2015.aspx http://blogs.msdn.com/b/visualstudioalm/archive/2014/11/12/s...

- zak_mc_kracken 12y agoEclipse has had this feature for many years. Not only can you edit and continue, but you can actually restart a function from the beginning ("Drop to frame").
- rjbwork 12y agoYes, and visual studio lets you drag your current line pointer at any line within a certain scope, so if the first part of your function does some set-up calculations, no need to rerun after changing, just set your current line pointer at the line below and voila!
