The illustration above shows a device application being debugged with Visual Studio and the included emulator. The program is running on the emulator (which displays the special buttons frequently found on Windows CE devices). In this case, the debugger has stopped the program at the line of highlighted code in yellow and the developer has access to the same set of debugging features that are available for .NET Framework applications. In the example, the developer is hovering the mouse over the variable "Text" causing the value of the variable (the text "John") to appear in a ToolTip window.
