Debugging a release version of a DLL (with PDB file)

Question

If I have a DLL (that was built in release-mode) and the corresponding PDB file, is it possible to debug (step-into) classes/methods contained in that DLL?

If so, wh

Answer 1

I finally found what cause the problems debugging a DLL that was built in release configuration:

First of all, it basically works as expected. Which means, if I have a DLL built in release-configuration plus the corresponding PDB file, then I can debug the classes/methods contained in that DLL.

When I first tried this, I unfortunately tried to step into methods of a class which has the DebuggerStepThroughAttribute, e.g:

[System.Diagnostics.DebuggerStepThrough]
public class MyClass {
    public void Test() { ... }
}

In that case, it is of course not possible to step into the method from the debugger (as expected/intended).

So everything works as intended. Thanks a lot for your answers.
