Also it is not possible, at the moment, to make a debug build using Visual Studio 2015. Here is a relevant mail I posted on the list about the problem: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/Debugging-specifics-wrt-visual-studio-td4185447.html This can also be mentioned on the wiki, so that one can install the appropriate version of Visual Studio ( and not build with 2015 only to find that debugging does not work).
