Introducing multithreaded debugging
Debugging is a key component of every .NET developer’s skillset. Nobody ever writes bug-free code and introducing multithreaded constructs to your project only increases the chances of introducing bugs. As .NET and C# have added more support for parallel programming and concurrency, Visual Studio has added more debugging features to support those constructs.
Today, Visual Studio provides the following multithreaded debugging features for the modern .NET developer:
