ObjectExporter is a Visual Studio extension that makes debugging faster, clearer, and far more productive. When the debugger is paused at a breakpoint, ObjectExporter allows you to right‑click any object in your code and instantly export it to JSON or C# — opening the result in a new editor tab with full syntax highlighting and the correct file extension. This makes it incredibly easy to inspect complex object graphs, generate data samples, create API payloads, build test cases, or reverse‑engineer models directly from runtime objects — all without leaving Visual Studio. 🚀 Key Features Right‑click object export while debugging Instantly export any object paused at a breakpoint into JSON or C#. JSON Export Opens a structured, navigable JSON tree view with all properties and nested objects fully expanded. C# Export Generates a complete C# class schema of the object, including nested types, plus a populated object snapshot. Automatic .json / .cs file generation Each export opens in a new editor tab with the correct extension, ready to save, edit, or commit to source control. Zero configuration Works immediately after installation — no setup required. 🧭 Perfect for Debugging complex models Creating API request/response samples Building integration or unit test data Reverse‑engineering DTOs Documenting object structures Exploring object graphs with deep nesting 🔮 Coming Soon Right‑click exporting from Autos, Locals, and Watch windows Export objects directly from your debugging tool windows for an even smoother workflow. |
