Show External Code

| Monday, October 25, 2010
I thought it would be a good idea to talk about working with the Call Stack some more.  Specifically, the option to show external code.  Let's start with the basics.  When you are in break mode and you look at a "normal" call stack, this is what you will see:

Let's define what "normal" is in this case.  Essentially, what you see here is determined by the "Enable Just My Code" setting in Tools -> Options -> Debugging -> General:

This setting is on by default and it is the reason you see the "[External Code]" sections in your Call Stack:

The reason for this is simple:  Just My Code means you only want to see your code without any extra stuff to get in the way.  If you WANT to see the "[External Code]" just right click anywhere in the Call Stack and choose "Show External Code":
