Debug the edited code

The debugging process of the edited code is different for the design time and runtime NetLogic.
  1. To debug the edited code
  2. If you want to debug a runtime NetLogic or if new custom types are created in the project, in
    FactoryTalk Optix Studio
    , select
    Run
    .
    The
    FTOptixApplication
     is compiles and runs.
  3. Select your development platform for debugging.
  4. If you use Visual Studio, from the
    Debug
     menu, select
    Reattach to Process
    .
    IMPORTANT: If you have closed Visual Studio since the previous debugging session, select
    Attach to Process
     and reset the link. See Configure the debugger.
  5. If you use Visual Studio Code:
    1. Open the
      Run and Debug
       pane by pressing
      Ctrl
      Shift
      D
      .
    2. At the top of the pane, from the drop-down menu, select:
      Attach to FTOptixRuntime (NetSolution)
      Debugs a runtime NetLogic.
      Attach to FTOptixStudio (NetSolution)
      Debugs a design-time NetLogic.
    IMPORTANT: If Visual Studio Code ignores the breakpoints, restart Visual Studio Code and repeat this procedure.
  6. In Visual Studio or Visual Studio Code, in the debug mode, open the NetLogic that you want to check.
  7. Do any of the following:
    • If the NetLogic is at runtime, select
      Start Debugging
       or press
      F5
      .
    • If the NetLogic is at design-time, in
      FactoryTalk Optix Studio
      , right-click a NetLogic and select a method to execute.
  8. Debug the code.
