Configuring Visual Studio to Debug .NET Framework Source Code

  • Article

Earlier I posted a link to the announcement on ScottGu's blog about the framework source availiability for debugging. I wanted to follow-up with my experience using the reference source.

I found the installation instructions on "Configuring Visual Studio to Debug .NET Framework Source Code" on Shawn Burke's blog. I assume there is some official MS site for these instructions but I didn't look very hard. If anyone knows the link please let us know. The installation worked great on my Vista laptop with VS 2008. I did notice that much of the Orcas (i.e., 3.5) BCL has yet to be published. Unfortunately this includes the Managed AddIn Framework (MAF, System.AddIn*) source. I am following up on the Orcas release and I will let you know when it gets published. Enjoy! JackG
