Inspecting values using the debugger in C#

Question

How do I inspect the return value of this GetItems() function using the debugger? Do I have to create a local variable for the results to accomplish this?

foreach (string item in GetItems())
{
    // some code
}

private List<string> GetItems()
{
    // return some list
}

Answer 1

You should be able to just add it as a Watch, and view the values as expected.

Answer 2

No, you can add a watch or a quickwatch to GetItems() and you would see the result
