Hello,
nothing work.
I have a C++, CLI project and would like to debug it.
It does not work.
Checked many settings, changed them, nothing helps.
Can anyone tell me the setting?
C++ I used mixed code!
VS2019 Prof.
Later I want to use the library via C#.
MFC Client --- CLI/C++ to a C# DLL
You need to use the Mixed Debugger. For example, -
Thanks for the quick response.
The Mixed selection is missing.
Where can I display or select this?
Customize the Standard Toolbar -
Add the Debug Type command -
After Command Added to Standard Toolbar -
Position the command (Move Down) -
I added, but it is enabled false, why?
The example solution that I used contains 3 projects - Unmanaged C++ MFC client application, MFC DLL project with CLR support and a C# class library.
Make sure your startup project is set to the Unmanaged C++ MFC client application.
I did this, I did that.
I can debug in via the MFC client into the C# DLL.
This works. I just can't debug the library.
Can you upload your test project. What could be the cause. Probably some compiler settings.
By the way, in these types of mixed projects the debugger breakpoints in the MFC DLL and the C# assembly will not be shown as enabled when the unmanaged C++ MFC Client is first started. After the CLR loads the MFC C++/CLI DLL its breakpoint will become enabled and after the C# class library loads then the C# breakpoint will become enabled.
Have you actually tried running the code to see if the breakpoints are hit?
Works well, only inside the Library. Maybe is not possible. Can you check your project please.
It also works without debugging. If there is a possibility it would be easier for adjustments and debugging.
You have helped me before. Thanks again. Maybe you have another tip.
My example solution is on Onedrive -- https://1drv.ms/u/s!AmnqrCFBv4nDgj8QFPe-mMAJmRs1?e=fUpoAe
Another thought - The project property for Debugger Type is configured for each individual combination of Configuration/Platform. So in the project property page set it to desired type of Mixed debugger for All Configurations/All Platforms.
Thanks, your sample works well.
I found differences. Do you know it? How I can add more debugger types?
I have an old project and it must be in VS2010.
There it does not work, if I switch to 2019 it works.
When I debug I have to take care of it.
Do you know a solution for 2010.
If not we can end the thread. Thanks for your test project, your help!

Do you mean you are building in VS2019 but using the toolset from VS2010?
If so, I can't help you as I don't have VS2019 and VS2010 installed on the same system.
Yes, right. Because the Client is in VS2010.
No one has updated it. Good, I know the cause now. I will create a TestApp, if it works then I will switch to 2010 and create the whole project. Yes, if you know, cost a lot of time again. Thank you!
