Hi all,

I generated a new Addin in VS 2005. After recompiling and starting with F5
VS loads again and shows the new menu entry in the Tools menu. If I select
that menu entry, the VS JIT Debugger pops up with the following message:

"An unhandled win32 exception occured in devenv.exe [2468]"

If I set a breakpoint at the Exec function, it won't be hit. Other
breakpoints in OnConnection or QueryStatus are working fine.

I have the June CTP installed. Does anybody know, what to do about that?

Does the add-in work fine when run stand-alone (that is, not through the
debugger)? I believe there is a known issue (not really documented anywhere)
in 2005 VSIP where a lot of unhandled exceptions (usually not implemented
exceptions) are thrown. You only see these when debugging, as I believe
VS.NET quietly consumes unhandled errors when running stand-alone.

If this is your problem, you can turn off the Debugger setting (Tools ->
Options -> Debugging -> General) "Treat exceptions crossing AppDomain or
managed/native boundaries as unhandled". Not exactly a fix, but at least the
debugger won't constantly be hounding you. Lets hope this is all fixed in
the final version of VSIP.
