There is a VS2017 Python preview available at:
https://www.visualstudio.com/vs/preview/
My project starts to load and crashes Visual Studio 2017 Preview. How do I get started debugging this problem? Putting a /log on the devenv.exe produces an ActivityLog.xml. This log does not seem to give me a hint on why VS is crashing. In the wiki, I see instructions on building but I don't see how I attach a debugger to the devenv.exe instance and start stepping through the code.
@kdriedger-simutech Please open a new issue for this, and include the text from Tools, Python, Diagnostic Info as an attachment.
I'm leaving this issue open (so people find it more easily) but locked for the time being. The links above are the answer to the question.
