Remarks

The DebuggerStepperBoundaryAttribute attribute is used as an escape from the effect of a DebuggerNonUserCodeAttribute. When executing within the boundaries of the DebuggerNonUserCodeAttribute, designer-provided code is executed as a step-through until the next user supplied code is encountered. When context switches are made on a thread, the next user-supplied code module stepped into may not relate to the code that was in the process of being debugged. To avoid this debugging experience, use the DebuggerStepperBoundaryAttribute to escape from stepping through code to running code.

Thread Safety

Any public static (Shared in Visual Basic) members of this type are thread safe. Any instance members are not guaranteed to be thread safe.
