Transfer using drag and drop

To transfer a debug session using drag and drop, follow these instructions.

About this task

Procedure

  1. Open a chat window with the user that you would like to transfer the debug session to.
  2. Select the debug target of the team debug session from the Debug view
  3. Hold down the left mouse button while dragging the debug target to the chat window.
  4. Release the left mouse button to drop the session into the chat window.
  5. You will see that a hyperlink is created in the chat window. Send this hyperlink to the user.

Results

The recipient user will see a hyperlink for the debug session. When the recipient user clicks the hyperlink, you will receive a notification that someone has requested to debug the team debug session. You can decide if the transfer should be allowed at this time. If you allow for the debug session transfer to continue (by responding Yes), the current debug session will be disconnected. The recipient user will receive the debug session.

You will also receive a notification even if you are not currently debugging a debug session. This is to ensure that your debug session is not taken by someone else while you have temporarily stopped debugging an application.
