Examples

[Visual Basic]

The following example modifies the DebuggerType property in the integrated development environment (IDE):

' add reference to Microsoft.VisualStudio.VCProjectEngine  
Imports EnvDTE  
Imports Microsoft.VisualStudio.VCProjectEngine  

Public Module Module1  
    Sub Test()  
        Dim mystring As String  
        Dim prj As VCProject  
        Dim cfgs, tools As IVCCollection  
        Dim cfg As VCConfiguration  
        Dim tool As VCDebugSettings  
        prj = DTE.Solution.Projects.Item(1).Object  
        cfgs = prj.Configurations  
        cfg = cfgs.Item(1)  
        tool = cfg.DebugSettings  
        tool.DebuggerType = TypeOfDebugger.DbgMixed  
    End Sub  
End Module  

Remarks

If you specify a debugger type that does not match the code you are debugging, you cannot step into certain sections of code. For example, if you specify Managed debugger, you cannot step into unmanaged code. Use the TypeOfDebugger enumeration to change the value of this property. See How to: Compile Example Code for Project Model Extensibility for information about how to compile and run this example.
