        Hi,
        does anybody know if there is a possibility to debug .NET Code while an BizTalk Orchestration is running that calls this .NET Code?

        Background:
        I'm using the BizTalk Expression Editor, to make a decision in an Orchestration (if…else). But when I test the Orchestration it doesn't work. The BizTalk Orchestration receives the Receive-File/XML File/Message which I put into an folder. That means the file disappears in that folder, but it doesn't apear in the folder where it should arrive.

        The XLANG/s expression at the decision form is as following:

        XLANG/s:
        MethodContainer.CheckAnmeldung.DuplicateExists(AnmeldungInstance)
        || MethodContainer.CheckAnmeldung.CheckGasthoerer(AnmeldungInstance)

        MethodContainer is a ClassLibrary, CheckAnmeldung is a Class in it and DuplicateExists and CheckGasthoerer are Methods. AnmeldungInstance is the received a XLANGMessage.

        I built my BizTalk Project analog to the Tutorial example.

          If you set a breakpoint in your class method, and do "debug … attach to process" and choose the btsntsvc.exe, when that code is called from the orchestration, it should jump to your code and let you do standard debugging.

              Richard, 

              Does it matter if his code is compiled with the Debug or Release flag?

                  That's a really good question.  Since I always do this while developing, I'm sure I'm in "debug" mode.  Might want to try flipping that to debug before trying to step through.

                   BTW, "wa", you and I need to make up 😉  You've been posting some kick *ss responses lately.

                      Even though I haven't tried it and the question seems already been solved:

                          Thank you guys for your posts! Unfortunately the debugger doesn't jump into my Code anyway:-(. Are there more or any special things to pay attention to?
                           
                          Also that expression, they tell you to put into an expression shape (System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine(iResult);) in the article postet by Hansi is not valid because iResult can't be found.
