Using Visual Studio 2010 parallel debugging is easy. Two new debugging windows provide a total view of the internals of your PPL and TPL applications with hints on where to start investigations. These are not mere extensions to VS, but tightly integrated with the rest of the debugger experience, so you don't need to learn many new techniques. Use them in your program to eclipse bugs from existence!

One of the most FAQ I receive is links to VS2010 parallel debugging content and rather than keep sending many, I decided to gather them all under one permalink, hence this multi link blog post.

- MSDN Magazine article on Parallel Debugging.
- Screencast of sample code from the article.

- MSDN Walkthrough: Debugging a Parallel Application (VB, C++, C#).
- Screencast of walkthrough for Parallel Stacks.
- Screencast of walkthrough for Parallel Tasks.

- MSDN "How To" on Parallel Tasks.
- MSDN "How To" on Parallel Stacks.

- Detailed blog post on Parallel Tasks.
- Detailed blog post on Parallel Stacks.
- Detailed blog post on Parallel Stacks - Tasks View.
- Detailed blog post on Parallel Stacks - Method View.

- Download slides on Parallel Tasks and Parallel Stacks (pptx).

If you have questions on these, please post to any of the parallel computing forums or the debugging forum (your question will be routed to me if nobody else can answer it).
