Debugging maps in BizTalk 2009

A couple of days ago I finally had some time to install the beta of BizTalk 2009.

One of the new features in BizTalk 2009 is the ability to debug maps. You will get the possibility to debug the actual XSLT that BizTalk generates.

This is how the menu in BizTalk 2009 looks like when you right click the transformation:

When you click on the Debug Map option Visual Studio will open a debug session where you can debug the generated XSLT.

It is also possible to debug scripts, functoids and other custom code:

So in the 2009 version BizTalk gives us some really nice tools to debug maps.

What BizTalk 2009 still lacks is the possibility to easily debug orchestrations inside Visual Studio. Hopefully BizTalk 2010 (or 2006 R4 if you wish ;) ) will bring us this feature.

This is great BTS improvement and can be very useful sometimes, but I noticed that debugging does not work when dealing with External assembly script type - for me it couldn't find the assembly while debugging, but everything works great when testing map or using it.
