## Azure SDK 2.6 diagnostics changes
The following changes apply to Azure SDK 2.6 and later projects in Visual Studio:

* The local emulator now supports diagnostics. This means that you can collect diagnostics data and ensure that your application creates the right traces while you develop and test in Visual Studio. The connection string `UseDevelopmentStorage=true` turns on diagnostics data collection while you are running your cloud service project in Visual Studio by using the Azure storage emulator.

* The diagnostics storage account connection string `Microsoft.WindowsAzure.Plugins.Diagnostics.ConnectionString` is stored in the service configuration (.cscfg) file. In Azure SDK 2.5, the diagnostics storage account is specified in the diagnostics.wadcfgx file.

5. To view the **Diagnostics configuration** dialog box, select **Configure**. Except for **General** and **Log Directories**, each tab represents a diagnostics data source that you can collect. The default **General** tab offers the following diagnostics data collection options: **Errors only**, **All information**, and **Custom plan**. The default **Errors only** option uses the least amount of storage, because it doesn’t transfer warnings or tracing messages. The **All information** option transfers the most information, uses the most storage, and therefore, is the most expensive option.
