This is relatively stable but no to be considered complete. Currently supported: 1. Installing user/dev kit (as normal) 2. Creating C#/VB/F# projects (latter 2 untested) 3. Debugging a Cosmos project - see limitations list below. Debugging limitations: 1. Breakpoints sometimes fail to be hit. Only known thing that may help is recompile everything. 2. Specific breakpoint failure case: If you try and place a breakpoint on or after a "while(true)" statement it is extremely unreliable. Other limitations: 1. VMWare occasionally breaks. If you get "Internal error" messages, or if VS crashes (don't let Windows "fix" it) or if VMWare fails to load properly there is only one known & reliable solution: Re-run the VMWare installer and hit "Repair". No restart required. You won't lose your VMs or settings (AFAI can tell). If it all breaks, feel free to rant at it ;) |

<h2>CLR Managed Debugger (mdbg) Sample 4.0</h2>
<p class=text> </p>
<h4>Sample Overview</h4>
<p class=MsoPlainText>This sample provides the source files for CLR command
line debugger, <b>mdbg</b>. These sources demonstrate how to use the CLR
Debugging interfaces. As a corollary, they also show usage of the CLR
MetaData, Symbol Store, and Process Publishing interfaces. </p>
<p class=MsoPlainText> </p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>This debugger is also accompanied by five extensions that
enhance its functionality: <br>
(Once built, simply type "load <file>" to load the desired
extension.)</p>

<h4>Building the Sample</h4>
<p class=MsoPlainText style='text-align:justify'>To build the <b>mdbg</b>
sample you will need to have Visual Studio 2010 installed on your system. The
sample must be built using the Visual Studio 2010 solution file.</p>
<p class=MsoPlainText style='text-align:justify'> </p>
<p class=MsoPlainText style='margin-left:.5in;text-align:justify'><span
style='font-family:Symbol'><3E></span><span style='font-size:7.0pt;font-family:
"Times New Roman"'> </span>Open
the mdbg.sln file.</p>
<p class=MsoPlainText style='margin-left:.5in'><span style='font-family:Symbol'><3E></span><span
style='font-size:7.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman"'>
</span>From the "Build" menu, select "Build Solution" </p>
<p class=MsoPlainText style='margin-left:.5in'><span style='font-family:Symbol'><3E></span><span
style='font-size:7.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman"'>
</span>The solution file uses "Debug" as the default, but you can
simply select "Release" from the dropdown menu at the top if you want
that instead. </p>
<p class=MsoPlainText> </p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><b><u>NOTE</u></b>: The IronPython extension project is
not built by default. More details here - <a
href="src/extensions/pythonExt/readme.txt">IronPython Extension</a>.</p>
<h5> </h5>
<h4>Running the Sample</h4>
<p class=MsoPlainText>Run <b>mdbg.exe</b> from the bin directory, or by
pressing F5 in Visual Studio. Mdbg commands are similar to cordbg commands.
Please refer to the cordbg manual, mdbg's help command, or the source code for
more information on how to use various debugger commands.</p>
<p class=MsoPlainText> </p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>Be sure to try the Graphical User Interface extension
which makes debugging managed programs easier and more natural. To load
this extension simply type "load gui" on the mdbg command line.</p>
<p class=MsoPlainText> </p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>This sample also contains API-level documentation for two
libraries, mdbgeng.dll and mdbgext.dll. Documentation for these libraries
can be found in the DOC subdirectory.</p>
<p class=MsoPlainText> </p>
<h4>Feedback on the Sample</h4>
<p class=MsoPlainText>This sample is presented courtesy of the CLR Debugger
Team. It is intended for use as a demonstration on writing .NET managed
debuggers in managed code. If you have any questions about the sample or the
managed debugging APIs, or if you would like to send us a suggestion about the
sample, please participate in our <a
