Debugging any in-process server such as an Active Server Object is much like debugging a DLL. You choose a host application that loads the DLL, and debug as usual.
To test and debug an Active Server Object,
- Turn on debugging information using the Compiler tab on the ProjectOptions dialog box, if necessary. Also, turn on Integrated Debugging in the ToolsOptionsDebugger Options dialog.
- Choose RunParameters, type the name of your Web Server in the Host Application box, and choose OK.
- Choose RunRun.
- Set breakpoints in the Active Server Object implementation.
- Use the Web browser to interact with the Active Server Page.
The debugger pauses when the breakpoints are reached.
