win_tech_off_topic : Message: RE: [OT] .net Framework sourcecode now available

Have people been getting this to work? I followed the instructions in the blog post, and can load the symbols, but there's not actually any source being displayed and I can't step into things I should be able to (System.Xml, for instance).

Subject: [OT] .net Framework sourcecode now available

The .net framework sourcecode (or a large section of it anyway) has now been released and you can debug right into it from visual studio 2008.

http://weblogs.asp.net/scottgu/archive/2008/01/16/net-framework-library-source-code-now-available.aspx

I’ve spent quite a bit of today navigating around, and this is a brilliant resource. Haven’t solved my dialog box problem fully, mind – but there you are ;-)

Best wishes

James

Just in case you're not aware, you can move to 2008 without moving to .NET 3.0/3.5. I am successfully writing code in 2008 against the 2.0 framework.that...
