I am aware of 3 methods:
  1. Set the environment variable MsiBreak to the name of the custom action
  2. Call DebugBreak()
  3. Use __asm { int 3 }

In all cases this will cause a dialog to appear which allows you to attach VS 
to the process. Have you tried these?

Subject: [WiX-users] debug a C++ Custom Action Project in VS 2010

Hi could someone please help me and tell me how to debug a C++ Custom Action 
Project in VS 2010? I've tried a number of things but nothing seems to work.

 

Kind Regards,
