How to get values of array by powershell from Visual Studio

Question

Defined double array:

double[] doubleArray = {0.0, 1.0, 2.0};

During debugging (VS2013) in "Package Manager Console" created varaible $doubleArray:

$doubleArray = $dte.Debugger.CurrentStackFrame.Locals | Where-Object {$_.name -Match "doubleArray"}

How can I get all values of the array via powershell?

Answer 1

Unfortunately "value" is only a String:

Capture VS local variables while debugging in EnvDTE

Obviosly there is nothing more to it than just that string. It looks like, before handing the result over to the PowerShell-Window a ToString() is done, so it is no longer an object that can be expanded.

PM> $doubleArray.value | Select *

Length
------
11

or:

PM> $doubleArray | Select value -ExpandProperty Value

{double[3]}
