MySQL Connector/Net 6.6 has a feature to Debug Stored Procedures and Functions

Installing the Debugger

To enable the stored procedure debugger:

• For Connector/Net 6.6: Install Connector/Net 6.6 and choose the Complete option.
• For Connector/Net 6.7 and later: Install the product MySQL for Visual Studio, to which the stored procedure debugger belongs.

Starting the Debugger

To start the debugger, follow these steps:

• Choose a connection in the Visual Studio Server Explorer.
• Expand the Stored Procedures folder. Only stored procedures can be debugged directly. To debug a user-defined function, create a stored
  procedure that calls the function.
• Click on a stored procedure node, then right-click and from the context menu choose Debug Routine.
