Using debug visualizers in Visual Studio without having to copy the dll assembly to the VS folder

I know that with Visual Studio 2005 you can create debug visualizers.

Now, what I would like to know is that we can use our debugger visualizers without putting them in the Visual Studio folder.

Although it is useful to have Visualizer for .NET types in the form of bitmaps, images, arrays, etc., I would not want to put Visual Studio in Visual Studio for types that make sense only for my current project.

thanks

The documentation says it all:

To install the visualizer

  • Locate the DLL containing the generated visualizer.

  • Copy the DLL to any of the following locations:

    • InstallPath \ Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0 \ Common7 \ Packages \ Debugger \ Visualizers

    • My Documents \ Visual Studio 2010 \ Visualizer

  • If you want to use the visualizer for remote debugging, copy the DLL to the same path on the remote computer.

  • Restart the Visual Studio debugging session.
