how to Apply code changes at run time without breaking exectuion

Question

Hi there,

I am in visual studio 2008 and working on a very huge project which takes alot of time to build now when it is running in debug and i make some code changes i want it to incorporate those code changes at run Time. i do understand that this will not be always possible but in some situation it is.

I do know that when i break the execution using break point and then add code then step in again it applies code changes but i want it to apply code changes without breaking execution.

I think there no way to do the thing you want.

I use following trick in my asp.net application to execute my code change.

• Deatach w3p process from ide ( Go Debug > Deatach all)
• Make changes in code
• Rebuild code
• Attach process again with ide ( Go Debug > attach process>
