<h3 id="debuggingVisualStudio">Debugging using Visual Studio</h3>
<!--=====================================================================-->
<p>The file <tt>utils/clangVisualizers.txt</tt> provides debugger visualizers that make debugging
of more complex data types much easier.</p>
<p>There are two ways to install them:</p>
<ul>
<li>Put the path to <tt>clangVisualizers.txt</tt> in the environment variable called
<tt>_vcee_autoexp</tt>. This method should work for Visual Studio 2008 and above.
</li>
<li>Edit your local <tt>autoexp.dat</tt> (make sure you make a backup first!),
located in <tt>Visual Studio Directory\Common7\Packages\Debugger</tt> and append
the contents of <tt>clangVisuailzers.txt</tt> to it. This method should work for
Visual Studio 2008 and above.
</li>
</ul>
<p><i>[Note: To disable the visualizer for any specific variable, type
<tt>variable_name,!</tt> inside the watch window.]</i></p>
<p>The files
<a href="http://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk/utils/llvm.natvis">
<tt>utils/llvm.natvis</tt></a> and
<a href="http://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/cfe/trunk/utils/clang.natvis">
<tt>utils/clang.natvis</tt></a> provide debugger visualizers
that make debugging of more complex data types much easier.</p>
<p>Put the files into
<tt>%USERPROFILE%\Documents\Visual Studio 2012\Visualizers</tt> or
create a symbolic link so they update automatically.</p>
