Question

I have a common dll that I am using for my project. We have made it a nuget package and use it locally in my company.

However, now I am getting a null reference exception from inside that dll. If I try to step into it (F11) it just steps over it.

Now, I come from a Delphi background, and in Delphi, you could provide the code for a library and it would let you step through it.

I am hoping that there is a way to say, “here is the code, please step through it as if were the dll I am using.”

Otherwise I am going to have to go and change the references to this dll and then add the code to the project. I can do that, but it seems like there should be an easier way.

Answer 1

Make sure your dll is also of debug build and the .pdb file generated with the dll is placed in the same location as the dll. Rebuild your current project and you should be able to step into the function calls.
