Debugging arx application for AutoCAD 2012 with VS2010

[Anonymous]

For context, I'm on Windows 7-32bit; Visual Studio 2008 SP1 and 2010 SP1 are both installed.

I modified the project file (.vcxproj) by adding

    <TargetFrameworkVersion>v3.5</TargetFrameworkVersion>:

 <PropertyGroup Label="Globals"> 
    <TargetFrameworkVersion>v3.5</TargetFrameworkVersion> 
  </PropertyGroup> 

inside the  <PropertyGroup Label="Globals"> node.

I switched Platform Toolset from v100 to v90.

Then I launched AutoCAD 2012, loaded my arx solution in VS2010 and from the Tools menu, Attach to Process… I tried to select Attach to Managed v3.5 but it does not exist! All I see is Managed (v2.0, v1.1, v1.0) code or Managed (v4.0) code.

Am I the only one having this much fun with debugging? After sifting the internet I found no similar issues.

I’d appreciate your advice!
