When running a process under the debugger, I would like to start a child process in the same debugger.
Currently, I use
Process.Start("sample.exe");
I want it to be something like this:
if (Debugger.IsAttached)
// start "sample.exe" in the same debugging session
else
Process.Start("sample.exe");
I could pass a flag to the child process that instructs it to call Debugger.Launch()
, but that won't catch start up errors, and it results in a debugging session where some features are not enabled (such as edit and continue, etc). It's preferable to have the debugger launch the process directly.
You should attach debugger to process you are starting. This could be done:
Here is code for "sample.exe" to attach debugger:
if (!Debugger.IsAttached)
Debugger.Launch();
Debugger.Break();
You should pass some parameter to "sample.exe" to verify if you need to attach debugger.
Process.Start("sample.exe", "Debug=true");
you can change the properties of your solution to start multiple apps.
