VS2005: edit while debugging

[Wiebe Tijsma]

Hi,

I'm looking for a way to be able to edit the source files in VS2005
while debugging. I don't mean edit-and-continue, and I really don't care
if the debugger points to the wrong line after adding or removing a
line, I just want to be able to add comments or make small changes while
seeing the code without having to stop the debugger.

Thanks!

Why so frustrated about it? You can always use the command windows to change
variable value and so on even if you stop and start again or store you
variable value somewhere.

Well, I just like to directly add //TODO: items or refactor minor things
directly ( I always used to do this in VS2003, and don't really
understand why this 'feature' was removed).

I found a solution by replacing the vsdebug.dll with a 'hacked' one, but
would prefer a less 'dangerous' way:

Thanks anyway, I just thought I wouldn't be the only one being
frustrated about it...
