One, source of demand

During the development process, different versions of systems such as Win7, Win8, Win10 may be used for compatibility Debugging, sometimes it is optimized for special graphics cards, wireless network cards and other hardware devices. There is a better solution, that is, using the remote debugging function of Visual Studio, you can directly use the test machine as the debugging target and directly track With breakpoints and exceptions, you can quickly find the wrong place just like debugging on the local machine. , Without the need to install the VS environment on the test machine.

>The remote debugging of traditional desktop client is more troublesome compared to UWP, ASP and other projects, because it is a non-deployable application, the principle is to copy the compiled file to The remote computer is connected to the VS through the network. This article mainly describes the remote debugging of WPF and WinForm applications. -debugger”>①Install Remote Debugger
