NuGet Package Debugging - Symbols with Non-Displaying Sources

Question

I am trying to build both nuget packages and symbols for my library. I use TeamCity to build packages, and then push them to the SymbolSource internal repo .

It seems like everything is building / packing / pushing, but when I go to debug in my nuget package (using VS2012), the source code is not correct, all the better, I can not find the names of the methods that it shows me somewhere in the library.

My project structure:

MyProject / Bin/ release/ MyProject.dll VariousFolders/ CSFiles.cs VariousCSFiles.cs MyProject.csproj MyProject.nuspec 

In my .nuspec file (note that the v4.0 and v4.5 directories are processed on the TeamCity side):

 <?xml version="1.0"?> <package > <metadata> <id>MyProject</id> <version>0.0</version> <title>MyProject</title> <authors>Me</authors> <owners>Possibly You</owners> <requireLicenseAcceptance>false</requireLicenseAcceptance> <description>Sweet Description</description> <releaseNotes></releaseNotes> <copyright>Copyright 2013</copyright> </metadata> <files> <file src="MyProject\**\*.cs" target="src" /> <file src="MyProject\bin\release\v4.0\*.dll" target="lib\net40" /> <file src="MyProject\bin\release\v4.0\*.pdb" target="lib\net40" /> <file src="MyProject\bin\release\v4.5\*.dll" target="lib\net45" /> <file src="MyProject\bin\release\v4.5\*.pdb" target="lib\net45" /> </files> </package> 

Testing the performance of the MyProject.0.0.nupkg command

 lib/ net40/ MyProject.dll net45/ MyProject.dll 

Checking the results of TeamCity MyProject.0.0.symbols.nupkg

 lib/ net40/ MyProject.dll MyProject.pdb net45/ MyProject.dll MyProject.pdb src/ VariousFolders/ CSFiles.cs VariousCSFiles.cs 

So the problem I am assuming is that when I click on the package before my internal repo symbol, I look at the file structure, it looks like this:

 Data/ MyProject/ 0.0/ Bianaries/ MyProject/ some_hash/ MyProject.dll MyProject.pdb MyProject.txt Sources/ [Empty] MyProject.0.0.nupkg 

The Sources folder is empty, 100% empty, I can’t get any .cs file in this Sources folder, but again, I don’t know what happens between nuget push to my repo, the actual dump to the data folder and VS2012, magically pulling debugging characters.

So, I have a complete loss where you can check the following.

Answer 1

Not sure if this will work. But have you tried resetting VS2012? You can do this using TOOLS → Import and Export Settings and select the Reset all settings option in the dialog box. You can save the current settings if you want.
