I'm trying to follow this guide in creating a Forms-Based Authentication for Claims-Based SharePoint 2010 Web Applications Using Custom Membership and Role Providers.

https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/gg317440(v=office.14).aspx[^]

from what i understand, the dll, when compiled and put into the GAC will be called by the web.config file in the central administration, web application and Security Token Service when user is trying to login or when the people picker is searching for the user. i want to know how do i set up a debugging mode so that i will be able to step through the code? do i need to create a blank SharePoint project and add the class files inside to deploy the solution first? Where do i deploy the solution to anyway?

class files should work as expected ,since it does not matter GAC/bin as long as ur code is working,

before debugging make sure ur dll is gac deployed and u have web-config entry and do an iisreset in the server and open the SharePoint page in ur app , now go to ur server where the dll is deployed and open the project in that system select debug menu form VS and attach to process and seelct all W3Wp process and attach u code should be in debug mode
