# Debugging and the Hosting Process
23
-
The Visual Studio hosting process improves debugger performance and enables new debugger features, such as partial-trust debugging and design-time expression evaluation. You can disable the hosting process if you need to. For more information, see [How to: Disable the Hosting Process](../ide/how-to-disable-the-hosting-process.md). The following sections describe some differences between debugging with and without the hosting process.
24
-
25
-
## Partial-Trust Debugging and Click-Once Security
26
-
Partial-trust debugging requires the hosting process. If you disable the hosting process, partial-trust debugging will not work even if partial-trust security is enabled on the **Security** page of **Project Properties**. For more information, see [How to: Disable the Hosting Process](../ide/how-to-disable-the-hosting-process.md) and [How to: Debug a Partial Trust Application](../debugger/how-to-debug-a-partial-trust-application.md).
27
-
28
-
## Design-Time Expression Evaluation
29
-
Design-time expression always uses the hosting process. Disabling the hosting process in the **Project Properties** disables design-time expression evaluation for Class Library projects. For other project types, design-time expression evaluation is not disabled. Instead, Visual Studio starts the actual executable and uses it for design-time evaluation without the hosting process. This difference could produce different results.
`AppDomain.CurrentDomain.FriendlyName` returns different results depending on whether the hosting process is enabled. If you call `AppDomain.CurrentDomain.FriendlyName` with the hosting process enabled, it returns *app_name*`.vhost.exe`. If you call it the hosting process disabled, it returns *app_name*`.exe`.
`Assembly.GetCallingAssembly().FullName` returns different results depending on whether the hosting process is enabled. If you call `Assembly.GetCallingAssembly().FullName` with the hosting process enabled, it returns `mscorlib`. If you call `Assembly.GetCallingAssembly().FullName` with the hosting process disabled, it returns the application name.
