In the IDE?

[crptcblade]

In VB6, I use this little nugget to tell whether or not I am running inside the IDE...

Private Function InIDE() As Boolean
On Error GoTo ReturnTrue
 
    Debug.Print (1 / 0)
    InIDE = False
    Exit Function
    
ReturnTrue:
    InIDE = True
End Function

Is there a similar way to do it in the .NET IDE? (In any language really)

I would use the same the same concept but use Assert instead of Print

Private Function InIDE() As Boolean
On Error GoTo ReturnTrue
 
    Debug.Assert (0 = 1)
    InIDE = False
    Exit Function
    
ReturnTrue:
    InIDE = True
End Function

Sorry, I should have tested that before I posted it. That does not work.

Ok, sorry for the bad post before,
The way I know I am in the IDE is with #Constants

in your declarations section type
#Const InIDE = 1 'Change to 0 for when you don't want to execute code based on this value

Then anywhere you want to test it you would type

#If InIDE Then
    'put code for what you want to do if you are in the ide here
#Else
    'put code for what you want to do other wise here
#End If

This works, I took the time to test it before I posted.

Thanks, I just found this one, too, and it doesn't require remembering to change constants...

Private Function InIDE() As Boolean
    Return Debugger.IsAttached
End Function
