How do breakpoints in visual studio work? I’m asking this because I have some inline functions declared in the class header, and whenever I set a breakpoint in one of them, I think the IDE also puts breakpoints to wherever the function is called. Which of course makes sense, but how exactly is it done internally?

    The function you are placing breakpoint in, are inline, and that’s why debugger is smartly misplacing them somewhere else. It may be you are debugging a non-Debug build. Try

    • Disabling all optimizations
    • Make function non-inline

    Your question doesn’t demand this, but you can read here how breakpoints are implemented.
