In order to debug your component, you must ensure that Symbolic Debugging Information has been generated for it and distributed to the correct host.
To generate Symbolic Debugging Information
-
Open your component’s project solution in Microsoft Visual Studio.NET on the Test and Development System or your Developer PC.
-
Choose View > Solution Explorer.
-
Right-click on the component’s project and select Properties.
-
Expand Configuration Properties, then select Build.
-
Ensure that Generate Debugging Information is selected (or set to True).
-
Repeat the above steps for each project configuration (Release and Debug).
-
Recompile the project. This will generate a .pdb file in the %DNAInstallRoot%\RealTime\bin directory.
-
Copy the .pdb file to the host on which the component is installed.
