Debugging c# dll in Matlab

Hi, I know how to attach my c# project to an external process, and how to call .net assembly from Matlab. I put a breakpoint in my c# code and can follow the flow of the code to identify an issue. However, if I want to fix the bugg and rebuild the solution, I must close matlab, then reopen it, reload assembly and try the new solution. Isn't there a way to unload an assembly or rebuild the solution without closing matlab each time ? Thks

It doesn't seem like this functionality is currently available. I would recommend calling/writing MathWorks Tech Support and ask them to put in an enhancement request for you.

Indeed, "fresh" from the documentation: "You cannot unload an assembly from MATLAB."

This is killing our productivity. Any chance of a fix?

According to Matlab's support rebooting is the only solution to this problem for the current Matlab Version (8.1.0.604, R2013a):

"The ability to unload an assembly is not available in MATLAB at this point of time. This may be addressed in one of the future releases. Currently, to work around this issue, restart MATLAB."

Somehow shocking, isn't it? (see also http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/newsreader/view_thread/330604)
