C# in a Nutshell, Second Edition

Name

DebuggableAttribute

Synopsis

This attribute contains two properties that indicate if code can be debugged. IsJITOptimizerDisabled indicates whether optimization has been turned off, and IsJITTrackingEnabled indicates whether debug symbols have been placed in the code. This attribute is automatically applied by the compiler, with isJITTrackingEnabled set to false and isJITOptimizerDisabled set to true. Use the /debug command-line compiler switch to include debug symbols (isJITTrackingEnabled=true), and use /optimize to enable compile-time optimizations (isJITOptimizerDisabled=false).
