Show messages logged through the Trace and Debug classes

[riQQ]

Problem Description

I want to see the messages logged through the Trace and Debug classes the same way I can see them in VisualStudio's Output window.

Proposal

Show the messages logged through the Trace and Debug classes in the dnSpy Output window the same way I can see them in VisualStudio's Output window.

Alternatives

-

Additional Context

I tried the latest build and it doesn't show any messages logged through the Trace and Debug classes on .NET Framework 4.8.

Debug and Trace use the DefaultTraceListener by default.

By default, the Write and WriteLine methods emit the message to the Win32 OutputDebugString function and to the Debugger.Log method.

Hi, in order for Debug and Trace class to be able to display messages you must disable this option.

This option, when enabled, patches the code for the Debug class in order to prevent detection of dnSpy. One of these patches is to the Debugger.IsLogging() method. The patch makes this method always return false to simulate the program not being ran by the debugger.

This then causes this code to not call Debugger.Log which means the message does not get sent to the .NET debugger engine and thus does not get sent to dnSpy.

Thanks, that works.

What do you think about adding a tooltip to that option saying that activating it leads to the Output window not showing Debug and Trace messages?
