Okay, weird situation: I need to Debug a VSTO Office Addin. This was written in Visual Studio 2008 Professional and debugging is usually done by loading the Project, Attaching to Outlook.exe and setting breakpoints – works fine.
But I gave a situation where it does not work as expected on one machine, but I do not have VS2008 Pro on that Machine (only Express if that helps, but express will not load the project as the Project type is unsupported), and no chance to use a Remote Debugger.
I just wonder if it’s possible to still debug it without loading the project, since I’m ‘armed’ with the .pdb File, Source Code and .dll that was used for this.
Edit: Just for clarification, it’s not an exception, it’s an if/else block that goes into the else block even though it should not. I would need to set a breakpoint and inspect some .net variables, possibly even modifying them.
WinDbg will be able to do this, but it’s not exactly user-friendly.
