Cannot obtain value of the local variable or argument because it is not available at this instruction pointer, possibly because it has been optimized away in Visual studio 2017

Hi,

Recently we were debugging a D365 plugin in Visual studio 2017, able to hit the debugger but unable to get values to any of the variables. Getting the above error while debugging with the solution being in Release mode.

Changed from the release mode to debug mode, deployed the solution and then able to debug and get the values.

Please refer to below posts  for more information.

Hope this helps someone…
