    Inter-project debugging

    Hello All,

    I wrote a .dll in C++, and I'm calling it's funtions from a VB.NET
    program. I have both the VB and the C++ projects in the same solution.

    When I debug, I can step through the VB.NET program, but when I get to
    the .dll function call, it just does a "Step Over" instead of stepping
    *Into* my .dll's code, even though I have the .dll project as part of
    the solution.

    How can I make the program step into my .dll's code when I'm debugging?

    Thanks!

    -Joel

      Highlight the VB.Net project and choose 'Properties' from the menu. Then
      click the 'Configuration Properties' folder and the 'Debugging' item below
      it. Find the checkbox labeled "Unmanaged Code Debugging" and select the
      option.

      Be warned, this option is often painfully slow.

      Regards,
      Will
