Debugging Roslyn Analyzer

I am working on writing a DiagnosticAnalyzer. I was able to unit test it just fine. I wanted to try it out in Visual Studio. The VSIX project that got created seems to be working. When I set that to the default project and Run the solution another instance of VS launches and I can see that my VSIX got installed. However when I set breakpoints it shows that the symbols aren't loaded and the breakpoint won't be hit. Anyone have any ideas why this would happen?

Have you made sure, that you have installed the correct version of the ".NET Compiler Platform SDK Templates" extension? I had the same problem and noticed that I had installed the wrong version. I'm using CTP 6 of VS2015 so I had to install ".NET Compiler Platform SDK Templates for CTP6" (Visual Studio Gallery). After that I've been able to debug the analyzer extension just like any other program.
