AutoCAD's managed runtime routinely throws exceptions.
By default, Visual Studio will break on any managed exception in the process,
not just those that are thrown by code that's called by your own code.
To prevent it, goto Tools->Options, and select the 'Debugging' node
in the tree on the left.
Then, check "Enable Just My Code..." on the right.
You can also enable or disable breaking on specific exceptions using
Exceptions dialog (Debug->Exceptions).

I am setting up a new machine for my development and I have run into a problem
in which the Visual Studio debugger doesn't let me debug my application. I tried
to isolate the problem by using te simplest Hello World application. The details
are as under:
(1) Using AutoCAD 2010, ObjectARX 2010, Visual Studio 2008 SP1, Windows XP 32
bit SP3
(2) Wrote the simplest Hello World application as per the ObjectARX sample. The
solution references acdbmgd and acmgd from the ObjectARX\inc-win32 folder
(3) Set the debug executable to acad.exe.
(4) Run the solution, gives an error "Exception has been throws by the target of
invocation..." pointing to AcAppFrame.xaml. I am able to continue the debug by
clicking the Continue button.
(5) At the AutoCAD prompt, netload the hello dll.
(6) Give Hello command - AutoCAD says unknown command.
If I netload the dll by running AutoCAD outside te debugger, the hello command
works.
Any idea what is going on here - I am new to Arx .NET development on AutoCAD
2010. Have I missed any important setting here? I have attached the project.
Thanks, Gagan
