[Feature request]: Distribute debug symbols/PDB files

[ldeluigi]

Is your feature request related to a specific problem? Or an existing feature?

I am trying to debug Swashbuckle behavior but can't due to debug symbols missing

Describe the solution you'd like

Distributing PDB files/debug symbols in BuGet enables to debug swashbuckle from code dpendning on it

Additional context

No response

I'll have to check when I'm at a computer, but there should be embedded symbols in the assemblies so you should be able to debug without PDB files.

[ldeluigi]

True but the experience is not very seamless and clean

[martincostello]

That sounds more like a problem with whatever tooling you're using, than something we need to worry about.

I'm fairly sure the setup here is the same one I put into Polly, and last time I debugged through into non user code in Visual Studio it all "just worked".

Again, I'll check it for myself when I'm at a computer, but if I get the experience I'm expecting to get with the latest version of Swashbuckle, then it's working as intended.

You can close the issue if it's the case

[martincostello]

Thanks for opening the issue, but this is working as I would expect in Visual Studio 2022 17.12.1.

Stepping into this method in a sample project of mine using Swashbuckle.AspNetCore 7.0.0, the debugger steps into the relevant code correctly when Just My Code is disabled:

Actually, no, I think you're right and it's not setup correctly - I just noticed that's the disassembled code, not the actual code.

Compare with the real top-of-the-method:

Swashbuckle.AspNetCore/src/Swashbuckle.AspNetCore.SwaggerGen/DependencyInjection/SwaggerGenServiceCollectionExtensions.cs

Lines 17 to 19 in bb49884

	// Add Mvc convention to ensure ApiExplorer is enabled for all actions
	services.Configure<AspNetCore.Mvc.MvcOptions>(c =>
	c.Conventions.Add(new SwaggerApplicationConvention()));
