Is MonoDevelop remote debugging works on Windows

Question

I'm using mono-2.6.7 and monodevelop-2.4, my OS is Windows 7.

I'm trying to implement a remote debugger for my own runtime (based on mono, mono is embedded in it, used lang - C#) in a way it's done by Novell for Moonlight.

Unfortunately, no success...

After clicking "Debug" in MonoDevelop:

1. IDE is put into debug state,
2. my runtime starts,
3. successfully sends DWP-Handshake to listening IDE
4. and then connection terminates and Debugging ends.

For some reasons (absolutely not clear for me) IDE doesn't send a handshake after recieving it from my runtime but simply terminates a connection.

The code i use is in another question: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3701211/cant-use-mono-soft-debugger-remote-debugging-because-debugger-agent-dwp-handsh

Does smb know if it can be done the save way it's done for Moonlight? Or it's it's impossible? Maybe there is another solution?

Prooved! It works. The problem was in unhandled exception thrown by VirtualMachineManager.ListenInternal(2) method in Mono.Debugger.Soft. More details here - http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3701211/cant-use-mono-soft-debugger-remote-debugging-because-debugger-agent-dwp-handsh
