Conclusion

Many developers use the Spy++ tool provided with Visual Studio®. With Spy++, you can understand the window layout of a running application or identify a certain window message that causes a bug. However, when you create a Microsoft® .NET Framework-based application, Spy++ becomes less useful because the window messages and classes intercepted by Spy++ don't correspond to anything a developer uses or even sees. What a developer really wants to see are managed events and property values.

This article describes how to use a new utility called ManagedSpy and its associated library ManagedSpyLib, both of which are available for download from the MSDN®Magazine Web site. Similar to how Spy++ displays Win32® information such as window classes, styles, and messages, ManagedSpy displays managed controls, properties, and events. ManagedSpyLib allows you to programmatically access Windows® Forms controls in another process. You can get and set properties and sync on events in your own code. ManagedSpyLib can also help you build test harnesses and can perform window, message, and event logging.
