How is Unreal.natvis included in the Rider solution?

Created December 22, 2022 20:13

Hi, I'm opening our project using the .uproject file, but I can't find the code that controls the addition of the Unreal.natvis file. I have an external .natvis file I want to include in the project, and for the .sln I can modify Engine/Source/Programs/UnrealBuildTool/ProjectFiles/VisualStudio/VCProjectFileGenerator.cs to include our custom .natvis, but I don't know where to make the modification to have it included in the uproject.

Do you have any guidance on how to accomplish this?

Thanks!

Hello Jorgen,

Currently Rider will automatically use all Natvis files from the Engine/Extras/VisualStudioDebugging directory and from all directories inside modules. We are planning to support loading natvis files from arbitrary directories in the future, but I cannot give you an exact ETA yet. Please feel free to vote for and follow RIDER-64814.
