I am trying to write a plugin for Notepad ++ using Visual Studio Community 2013
The dll builds fine from the solution, and if I copy it to the notepad ++ / plugins directory, I can test the functionality. However, now I want to debug it, and I cannot start the debugger. I tried following the paint.net guide , but I still get the error message
Unable to start program .....dll
In my project properties in configuration properties - Debugging I have the following set:
Command = C:\tools\Notepad++\notepad++.exe
Working Directory = C:\tools\Notepad++
Configuration Properties - Build Events - Event After Build I have:
Command Line = copy "$(TargetPath)" "C:\tools\Notepad++\plugins"
Note. The path is located outside the program files to avoid problems with the UAC when copying.
What other options can cause this problem?
