Paul, did you have any joy getting the 'Wizard' to work in C# Express ?
Any tips to share about setting up for Debugging with C# Express ?
Now that MS have declared that the Express Editions will be "Free Forever" I imagine a few more people may be interested.
Hey Kerry,
To debug in C# and I assume vb - Express.
1. Debug pulldown -> Exceptions -> Managed Debugging Assistants -> Uncheck 'Loader Lock'
2. Add an xml file to the root of your project. 'projectName.csproj.user' which is not created in
the express versions. If you download the Labs from the Autodesk net group you copy one
from there. Here is a sample; just change 'Start Program' to the version of Autocad you're using
and debug away... Nice thing about the Express versions if that they are a lot quicker than VS2005
pro. Pro has a lot of lag when typing and deleting files. I thought it was my wireless keyboard at first
until I googled and found other with the same problem.
<Project xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/msbuild/2003">
<PropertyGroup Condition=" '$(Configuration)|$(Platform)' == 'Debug|AnyCPU' ">
<StartAction>Program</StartAction>
<StartProgram>C:\Program Files\AutoCAD 2007\acad.exe</StartProgram>
</PropertyGroup>
<PropertyGroup Condition=" '$(Configuration)|$(Platform)' == 'Release|AnyCPU' ">
<StartAction>Program</StartAction>
<StartProgram>C:\Program Files\AutoCAD 2007\acad.exe</StartProgram>
</PropertyGroup>
</Project>
If you have any issues, I'll attach and actual file. Let me know.
Paul
As for the Wizard I didn't get it to work in C#, and really didn't care since it doesn't do much for a managed project. Kean did post a solution on his blog. The wizard does however work for native ARX
using C++ express.
