How to debug a Library using Windows Store App

Question

Is it posible to debug a Portable Class Library in Visual Studio 2013 using a Windows Store App?

So far, I had to close the current solution containing the library then I had to open another (containging the app) to debug the library. It is quite annoying.

I tried selecting the executable <Project dir>/bin/Debug/calcualtor.exe in the project settings Project->Properties->Debug->Start External Program but it shows an error Unable to start program... while tying to Start Debugging.

Briefly, what I try to avoid is switching solutions over and over. Thanks in advance.

Add the PCL to your Windows Store App's solution. You will be able to debug it just the same as your Windows Store App.
