How to enable SharePoint Developer Dashboard in SharePoint 2010

Tip #1: Enable SharePoint 2010 Developer Dashboard

I know when working with SharePoint 2010 I need the ability to enable the developer dashboard and sometimes I don't have the code around so I just need a quick snippet to enable the dashboard. Make sure you add a reference to 'Microsoft.SharePoint.dll'. This enables the dashboard for all pages:


            SPWebService contentService = SPWebService.ContentService;
            SPDeveloperDashboardSettings developerDashBoard = contentService.DeveloperDashboardSettings;
            developerDashBoard.DisplayLevel = SPDeveloperDashboardLevel.On;
            developerDashBoard.Update();

            Console.WriteLine("Developer dashboard has been enabled.");

If you need the developer dashboard enabled on a per-page basis just change the display level property of the SPDeveloperDashboardSettings object to :


            developerDashBoard.DisplayLevel = SPDeveloperDashboardLevel.OnDemand;

I hope this helps!
