AI Generated Breakpoints

.NET Counter profiler visualization with new UpDown and ObservableCounter instruments

The .NET counter profiler in Visual Studio now introduces support for two innovative metrics: UpDown, enabling real-time tracking of values with both incremental and decremental changes, and ObservableCounter, which autonomously manages aggregated totals, offering customizable callback delegates for precise control. In the provided screenshot, "total-hats" illustrates an UpDown counter, while "orders-pending" demonstrates an ObservableCounter.

UpDown and ObservableCounter

Moreover, we've implemented a filter flyout feature, enabling you to conveniently filter data points based on tags. This dynamically adjusts both summary and swimlane views according to the applied combinations.

UpDown and ObservableCounter Filter

This enhancement significantly enhances flexibility, streamlining the monitoring of dynamic values in projects. For instance, in web application development, the UpDown counter can monitor user interactions such as page views, while the Observable Counter optimizes server resources by efficiently managing active session totals.

GC Insights in Managed Memory Window

The managed memory window Insights tab now supports GC Insights. This feature provides a deeper understanding of your application's performance by shedding light on instances of induced Garbage Collection (GC). These instances are generally considered undesirable as they can impede the efficiency of your processes, since they involve manual intervention rather than allowing the Garbage Collector to autonomously manage memory allocation. Furthermore, GC Insights offers the ability to analyze these occurrences with time estimates, allowing you to better comprehend the impact of induced GC on their application's execution timeline.

GC_Insights

Creating Conditional Breakpoints and Tracepoints from Expressions

This upgrade simplifies debugging with new menu options: "Insert Conditional Breakpoint" and "Insert Tracepoint." You can now create breakpoints effortlessly using property or field names and values from autos, locals, watch windows, or DataTips. This makes debugging workflows easier, especially for complex expressions.

Expression BP

Simplifying memory usage investigations with the Memory Tool

The new "Hot Path to Root" feature improves memory analysis by finding the most likely path to the root for calculating an object's total size. It transforms the heap graph into a tree, using shortcuts like prioritizing the shortest path and avoiding cycling paths to actual roots. This feature is a great starting point for memory investigations, known as the "Hot Path to Root" in the Memory Usage tool reference graph. You'll spot the hot path with a red icon in the tree below.

Hot Path To Root

Attach to Process Dialog Revamp

The Attach to Process dialog in Visual Studio has been greatly improved for better functionality and user-friendliness. These updates include seamless integration with Visual Studio themes, a more space-saving view with tooltips for connection info, and setting "Local" connection as the default for faster access. You can now easily switch between tree and list views, organize processes better with collapsible sections, and select code types with a simplified combobox. Moreover, the “Select/Track Window" feature is now easier to use, allowing two- way tracking, selecting a process highlights its window, and clicking on a window selects its process.

Attach To Process

Targeted Instrumentation for EXE

The Performance Profiler's Instrumentation Tool now allows targeted profiling for any executable (exe) file. After selecting an exe file, a targeted instrumentation dialog appears, similar to startup project profiling. This enhancement enables focused analysis of performance metrics for specific executables. Additionally, you can broaden the profiling scope by including extra Dynamic Link Libraries (DLLs) using the 'Add Item' button, enhancing the examination of application performance.

Exe Instrument

Blazor debugging performance for some projects

When building ASP.NET Core Blazor projects you may experience significant delays when you start debugging in some cases. With this release we have made changes which should prevent those delays. If you cannot upgrade to 17.10, or above, there is a workaround listed on Developer Community site for version 17.9.

Cancel Solution Load

If you want to stop the solution load process before all the projects get loaded. You can now cancel the operation and return to an empty environment IDE. Cancel Load

Microsoft Teams development tools（Teams Toolkit)

Teams Toolkit now includes a new project file (.ttkproj) that is used to organize all of the files for managing a Teams app. Creating a new Microsoft Teams App project will create a solution with two projects and you'll see a TeamsApp project which contains the app manifest and other files for Teams Toolkit features along with another C# project with example code for implementating app capabilities like a conversational bot, Tab, etc.

Teams Toolkit new solution

You'll also find these changes:

  • The Teams Toolkit project menu is now discoverable on the TeamsApp project
  • Support for the Preview Features > Enable Multi-Project Launch Profiles to make it simpler to Start Debugging in Teams, Outlook, or other supported platforms of your Teams app

Extensibility

You can now use the Visual Studio 2022 version 17.10 installer to export installed instance-wide Marketplace extensions into a *.vsconfig file. This new export feature complements the Visual Studio installer's ability to load extensions specified in a *.vsconfig file that we shipped in 17.9. If you have any feedback or suggestions about this experience, please let us know in our Developer Community.

Refer to the online documentation for more information about using *.vsconfig files.

Inlay Hints for C# code in Razor Files

You can now enable inlay hints for C# code in your Razor (.razor, .cshtml) files. Inlay hints display parameter names for literals and object instantiation inline with your code. Inlay hints can also display type hints for variables with inferred types (i.e. var) and lambda parameter types. This feature can be enabled via Tools > Options > Text Editor > C# > Advanced.

Inlay hints for Razor files

Code Search and Navigation

In All-in-one Search, we’ve made some changes to simplify the UI and improve readability. These changes include the removal of highlighting of matches in the query, removal of the status bar with counts of each result type, and move of the status messages to the filters row.

Improve the readability of Visual Studio with new text formatting options

We've addressed Italic Font Support in Visual Studio 2019, bringing Italic, strikethrough, and underline as additional options for text formatting thoughout the IDE.

Formatting comments to use Italic font

To use the new options to personalize your experience, navigate to the "Fonts and Colors" page in Tools > Options > Environment where you'll find checkboxes for each of the previously mentioned options.

Image Hover Preview

Any web, desktop, or mobile developer works with images often. You reference them from C#, HTML, XAML, CSS, C++, VB, TypeScript, and even in code comments. Some images are local, and some exist online or on network shares, while others only exist as base64 encoded strings. We refer to them in numerous ways in code, but always as string values that don’t show us what the image looks like. Until now.

Image Hover Preview

We’ve included an editor tooltip that shows up when the mouse hovers over an image reference in the code editor. The tooltip shows the image in its original size but capped at maximum of 500 pixels wide and high. Below the preview image you’ll see the size in pixels and the file size in bytes. This feature was developed in close collaboration with the Visual Studio community. Thank you!

Windows Forms out-of-process designer

Performance improvements in Windows Forms out-of-process designer

Through a fruitful collaboration with a key partner, we are thrilled to announce substantial enhancements to the WinForms server process TypeResolutionService. These enhancements have yielded remarkable design time performance improvements, ranging from 30% to an impressive 50% in typical line of business applications. Notably, these enhancements particularly shine during scenarios that trigger server process restart and designer reload, such as project rebuilds or adjustments in project references. At the heart of these performance improvements lies a new mechanism implemented by our team, prioritizing assemblies crucial for designer load. We encourage you to explore the updated designer and share your invaluable feedback through VS Feedback channel so that we can continue improving WinForms designer performance.

  • Possible values are Auto|10|20|30|40|50|9000 and it is only valid for Target - Microsoft Azure SQL Data Warehouse

DW Compatibility Level

The workloads users select during installation come with required and recommended components. Required components are essential for the workload's functionality, while recommended components, though optional, play a crucial role in maximizing its potential.

Since the release of Visual Studio 2017, ongoing enhancements have been integrated into the IDE through minor version updates. These improvements enhance productivity and expand development capabilities, seamlessly integrated into both existing components and new ones. However, many users may not be aware of these new recommended components as they update incrementally. To address this, starting with 17.10 P1, Visual Studio will automatically install these new recommended components during updates. Notably, the recommended components installed during the update are only for workloads chosen by users.

Similarly, during updates, this feature ensures that no new workloads are installed. Additionally, any existing recommended components that users have chosen not to install remain untouched.

If you prefer not to use this feature, you can easily deselect it in the Update Settings dialog in the Installer. You can also remove recommended components if they're no longer necessary by modifying your installation.

Include Recommended

For the list of all components in Visual Studio, including recommended components, see Visual Studio Component IDs
