What sets the command line arguments in Properties/Debug/Start options?

See original GitHub issue

I’m trying to remove the command line arguments in Properties/Debug/Start options but each time I delete it, when the project rebuilds it’s re-assigned. What setting affects this and how do I keep it blank?

Untitled

I’ve tried editing the ExcelDna.Build.props file by commenting out the following lines but these don’t appear to affect it


<!--<RunExcelDnaSetDebuggerOptions Condition="'$(RunExcelDnaSetDebuggerOptions)' == ''">true</RunExcelDnaSetDebuggerOptions>-->
<!--<ExcelDnaExcelExePath Condition="'$(ExcelDnaExcelExePath)' == ''"></ExcelDnaExcelExePath>-->
<!--<ExcelDnaAddInForDebugging Condition="'$(ExcelDnaAddInForDebugging)' == ''"></ExcelDnaAddInForDebugging>-->

Thanks, that’s working.

I’m testing with both 32bit and 64bit Excel on the same PC so the command line arguments sometimes get in the way depending on what I’m testing.

@PhilippeRaemy Thanks. FYI in the next version of Excel-DNA opening a new Excel instance will be the default behavior (i.e. the /x will be added for you automatically). See https://github.com/Excel-DNA/ExcelDna/pull/344
