Process Hint 2022

Process Hint makes identifying the instance of multiple processes a breeze. Know the moment you break which process the debugger has paused in, even if you're attached to multiple instances of the same executable. It works by letting you define labels to display in the edit window based on expressions or text in the command line of the process the debugger has paused in.

Set up a string to match:

• the command line of the process
• anything that will resolve in the watch window, including calls to other modules like "MyLib.dll!IsHost()"

Then set some text to display. You can use expressions in curly brackets like "PlayerNum: {getPlayerNum()}". You can also set the location of the hint text, the color of the background of the hint, and the size of the font.

Open Process Hint's configuration window from View -> Other Windows -> Process Hint. Process Hint supports VS 2017 and 2019.
