In Visual Studio, when I ctrl-click (or ctrl-b) on a symbol from an external project, Resharper takes me to the decompiled view of the source.

I have a copy of the actual source on my computer in a different folder. How can I tell Resharper the location of this code so that I can navigate to it directly, rather than decompiled source?

Also, how can I make sure that I can step into this external code, rather than stepping over it?

In ReSharper Options, navigate to the External Sources tab and click the Advanced... button. This lets you create mappings to folders where your sources actually are.

  • I don't understand how this helps me. All I can do is specify a 'source' and a 'target', but what do I set as the source folder? The folder that Resharper caches the decompiled code in? Isn't that a bit weird? – cbp May 29 '12 at 08:17

    @cbp 'Source' is the directory code was in when binaries were compiled. Target is where source is now. – John Arlen May 29 '12 at 12:57
