Visual Studio 2010 hangs during debugging of C++ / CLI (mixed mode ) projects

After Google the issue i found that it was reported already but nothing useful yet from MS. I开发者_StackOverflow wonder if any one found a work around it?

Another option is to use windbg. You'll have to do a lot of commands by hand, but it's the best debugger out there. It handles mixed mode without any major issues. It has a bit of a learning curve, but it's very versatile.

Visual Studio's debugger is really not reliable when debugging mixed mode applications. Taken from my answer here #5965771:

• If you're trying to debug a piece of native code try to use a native project as the debugger start-up application. Under the project settings, "Debugging" tab set the "Debugger Type" to "Mixed", for us this helped sometimes (the native project can be a DLL for example, simply set your main Exe as debugging target in the project settings);

OR, as already mentioned in another answer: Use WinDbg! With it you can debug both managed/unmanaged mixed code applications much more reliably.

use a different debugger, or don't use the debugger at all, just trace to a file or insert breakpoints in the code with inline assembly language.
