c# - Visual Studio's enumeration during debugging (Results View): "Entry point was not found.":"" -

in cases, when trying expand results view of ienumerable in visual studio might cause error: entry point not found.":".

so decided test little, , found out happens when class has generic parameter (which call t) , implements ienumerable[bar[t]] (something doesn't directly uses t) or doesn't uses t @ all, ienumerable[string] (these may not cases).

here's example class visual studio cannot expand results view properly:

class foo<t> : ienumerable<list<t>> {     readonly list<list<t>> l;     public foo() {         l = new list<list<t>>();     }     public void add(list<t> l) {         this.l.add(l);     }     public ienumerator<list<t>> getenumerator() {         return l.getenumerator();     }     ienumerator ienumerable.getenumerator() {         return getenumerator();     } } 

and here's example class visual studio enumerates:

class foo<t> : ienumerable<t> {     readonly list<t> l;     public foo() {         l = new list<t>();     }     public void add(t value) {         l.add(value);     }     public ienumerator<t> getenumerator() {         return l.getenumerator();     }     ienumerator ienumerable.getenumerator() {         return getenumerator();     } } 

this happens in debug mode. if try iterate through enumerable, you'll see it's working intended.

does have idea on why happens or how solve it?

however, felt wanted provide additional information.
