I have a VS 2008 Solution in VB.Net that has 2 projects – a Launcher and the App. The Launcher is what runs first, checks to make sure the App has all the latest files from the network, etc. and then launches the App. The Launcher allows the user to select their environment (Test, Production) then passes those values into the App.exe as command line arguments.
This works fine when running normally, but when trying to debug this, I’m trying to figure out how to start Debugging from the Launcher, then pass the selected Environment into the other project so it can read them as command line arguments. Thanks.
One possible solution is to launch your executable without debugging and then attach the debugger to the second process that it launches.
