The article stated only that Edit and Continue only works in Visual Basic - this is untrue since I know for a fact it works in Visual C++ as well
Line 10:
* Many ways of viewing program state and data, including multiple watch windows, [[thread (computer science)|threads]], [[call stack]], and modules.
* [[Scripting language|Scriptability]] or the ability to control via a macro or scripting language. Any language which can talk to [[Component Object Model|COM]] can be used.
* '''Edit and continue''' support, enabling source code change and recompilation without having to restart the program (only Visual Basic debugger).
 
The main shortcoming of the Visual Studio Debugger is its inability to trace into [[kernel (computer science)|kernel]]-mode code. Kernel-mode debugging of Windows is generally performed by using [[WinDbg]], KD, or [[SoftICE]].
