This document explains how to build and test an Excel Add-In for comnsense.

Work in Visual Studio

Solution for the add-in: comnsense/comnsense.sln.

Debugging

If you have a 2010 version of MS Office, you need to edit comnsense.csproj. Search for OfficeVersion and change Office version and path from 15.0 to 14.0:

<ProjectProperties HostName="Excel" HostPackage="{29A7B9D7-A7F1-4328-8EF0-6B2D1A56B2C1}" OfficeVersion="14.0" VstxVersion="4.0" ApplicationType="Excel" Language="cs" TemplatesPath="" DebugInfoExeName="#Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Excel\InstallRoot\Path#excel.exe" DebugInfoCommandLine="/x" AddItemTemplatesGuid="{51063C3A-E220-4D12-8922-BDA915ACD783}" />

First time you build the solution nuget "restores" the packages listed in your packages\repositories.config file. It includes the dlls for the required libraries in the folder comnsense\packages\ZeroMQ.4.1.0.15\lib\net40\i386. Copy these over to C:\Users\<USER>\AppData\Local\Temp\. Start debugging.
