Blazor client side debugger not observing values

I'm unable to debug Blazor client side app.

I went throug MS docs and I can connect to the Chrome debugger. When the breakpoint is hit the app stops as expected but I cannot observe any value. All I get is a local scope with this variable that is undefined. Here is a screenshot of what I'm describing. I'm trying to debug Counter component and would like to see the currentCount value

The only thing I don't understand from the docs is Pass the --configuration Debug option to the dotnet run command Should I do that and how when using Visual Studio?

Solution

  • As far as I know client side debugging is not yet supported. See this link

    Other option is to switch over to server side blazor where you can use debugging, once done you can switch back.

    Or use Console.Writeline(currentCount);. The value will appear in the browser console as WASM: value of currentcount.
