Debugging Appcelerator Windows Phone App with Visual Studio 2015

Question

I am trying to Debug my Windows Phone App which was developed with Appcelerator, I am unable to get it to work. Appcelerator has a option called Debug but nothing happens when I click on it. So is it a problem with my studio or is it not implemented yet in Appcelerator? What I am currently trying to do is to load the solution found in phone.x86 into Visual Studio from Appcelerator's build directory. The solution is loading fine and the startup project is set to ALL_BUILD, but when I try to debug the solution in win32 mode it fails by giving this error :

LNK1181 cannot open input file 'Native\\Debug\\TitaniumWindows_Native.lib' C:\\Workspace\\Appcelerator_Studio\\SampleApp\\build\\windows\\phone.x86\\LINK

So I am assuming that this is not the correct was since the files generated are not for debugging environment. Any pointers on what I am missing here?

Answer 1

Debugging Titanium apps on Windows SDK has not been implemented yet:

https://jira.appcelerator.org/browse/TISTUD-7994

Our Q2 5.3 release will be fully focussed on Windows.
