It is possible to customize the display of variables in the Visual Studio Debugger by customizing the autoexp.dat file. The QT Add in for Visual Studio adds many customizations to autoexp.dat that enable you to see relevant information for QT classes, and there are a number of discussions on customizing the autoexep.dat that include a customization for QDomNode that appear to originate from this Daniel Albuschat blog entry QT Debugging with Visual Studio 2005. However, QDomNode is still not visible to me even with the described modifcations to autoexp.dat.

I notice that QDomNode uses a member variable QDomNodePrivate* impl as a PIMPL to hide its data members behind. This is similar to the "d" pointer commonly used in QT, notably in QString, which is able to see data correctly... Has anyone been able to visualize QDomNode in the Visual Studio 2010 Debugger?
