Debuging MEF without main app visual studio project


I am creatinig Managed Extensibility Framework extensions for some program. That program uses dll files witch i create. I dont have visual studio project of that program, but i have that program. I can run these extensions using that program, but cant debug them properly. Is it possible to use visual studio debugger to debug my code?

I found solution to this, thanks!


Solution

  • I found solution to this by my self, but thanks for sugestions. I can use that app for which i am creating this extension, class libary project. I press properties on project, then select debug tab and set "start external programm" an set it o that main app. then i press f5 and that app starts and when it uses my extension i can debug it using visual studio debugger. And i forgot to tell that i am creating this in C#.
