Explanation

Debugging with IntelliTrace, available in Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate, provides an enhanced picture of your application compared with traditional debuggers. Traditional debuggers show you the state of your application at the current time with limited information about events that occurred in the past. You must either infer events that occurred in the past, based on the state of your application at the current time, or restart the application to re-create past events. With IntelliTrace, you can actually see events that occurred in the past and the context in which they occurred. This reduces the number of restarts that are required to debug your application and the possibility that an error will fail to reproduce when you rerun the application. IntelliTrace extends and enhances the Visual Studio live debugging experience that you are used to. You still have access to all the Visual Studio debugger features that you are familiar with. IntelliTrace operates invisibly in the background, recording debug information. When you want to look back at a past state of your application, you can enter IntelliTrace mode. In this mode, you can navigate to various points in time where events of interest have been recorded.
