Debugging Silverlight Application
Posted by Ramprasad Navaneethakrishnan on March 5, 2009
Yesterday, few of my collegues tried their hands on Silverlight application for the first time and they faced this issue, a simple one which will be faced by most of the Silverlight novices. The issue is “Debugger not getting hit in the Silverlight project “. So why is this? How to solve this?
Solution:
All Silverlight applications will have a hosting application which will be an ASP.NET web application..
1. Right click the ASP.NET web application – -> Properties
2. In the properties window, select the tab Web.
3. In the debugger’s section, check the Silverlight checkbox.
4. Save the project properties.
5. Hit F5. Now you will be able to debug the Silverlight project
Leave your comments please.
Thanks.
