Debugging .Net assemblies called via COM on Yedda

Debugging .Net assemblies called via COM

Is it possible to debug a .Net assembly that is exposed and called through a COM interface?

I have been trying to get this to work with no luck. On one machine I have managed to get it to step into VS2k5 using a System.Diagnostics.Debugger.Break; statement but in no circumstances will it stop on a regular breakpoint!

Try running your application normally.

In VS2005 use the "Attach" feature in the debug menu after you are sure your .NET code ran at least once.

Then you can attach and you should be able to debug it.

Make sure you are using the debug build to do so, so that the debug symbols files will contain a correct reference to where the source code files are.
