visual studio - Debugging private NuGet packages?

Question

I've published some private/internal libraries as NuGet packages, using the symbols option. The packages and symbols are hosted on an internal network share. How can I step into these packages when debugging?

When I step to code from these packages, Visual Studio displays a "No Source Available" / "No Symbols Found" page. Clicking the "Load Symbols" only allows pdb files, not symbol packages.

These packages are not suitable for publishing on NuGet Gallery/SymbolSource.

Answer 1

What is the command that you used to generate the packages with the symbols? I tried to do the same exact thing nuget.exe pack -Prop Configuration=Release Framework.csproj -Symbols This creates two files: Framework.nupkg and Framework.symbols.nupkg. I put these files on a network share, used them from another project and debugging worked fine.

Have you tried putting the *.nupkg and *.symbols.nupkg files on a local disk instead of a network share?
