"This expression causes side effects and will not be evaluated". How to suppress?

c#, visual-studio, visual-studio-2010

Solution

You can append `,ac` to the watch expression to have it automatically refresh the value

x.ToString(),ac

See http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/e514eeby.aspx for more information and other format specifiers.

thanks to Scott Visual Studio: Make debugger aware that a function doesn't cause "side effects"

Problem

I'm getting this message in watch box. Actually, my expression doesn't have any side effect, and I need to re-evaluate it automatically each time. How can I achieve that?
