1. Make sure unmanaged debugging is enabled.

Project properties | Configuration Properties | Debugging | Enable Unmanaged Debugging

2. Run the application under debugger until completion, and check in Debug Output
window whether symbols have been loaded for the DLL.

There should be one of the following messages:

YourApp.exe: Loaded ...\YourDll.dll, Symbols loaded
YourApp.exe: Loaded ...\YourDll.dll, No symbols loaded
YourApp.exe: Loaded ...\YourDll.dll, Exports loaded

Which one?

Regards,
Oleg
