Web Service Debugging

[John Cantley]

Usually I write the web service into my solution and can debug it with no
problems. My current situation does not give me access to the source control
so I want to keep the web service out of the main web solution. So in
essence how do I debug the webservice? I can instantiate it in my web
project but never hit any breakpoints. I get an error when I try to step
into the webservice call from the web project. If I don't step in but just
f10 it, the webservice never stops at a breakpoint. I am attaching to the
WebDev.WebServer.EXE process and I get no breaks. I do not want to debug
this from the discovery but the other web project.

Thanks,
John Cantley

If you want to debug on the same machine put a break point on the entry
point of the web service and start it up in debug. From another instance of
VS run your client app and put a break point at the point you call the web
service. You should now be able to step across into the web service code.

you can try to Override wse request too:


protected override System.Net.WebRequest GetWebRequest(Uri uri)
{
PropertyInfo requestPropertyInfo = null;

WebRequest request = base.GetWebRequest(uri);

if (requestPropertyInfo==null)

requestPropertyInfo = request.GetType().GetProperty("Request");

// Retrieve underlying web request
HttpWebRequest webRequest =
(HttpWebRequest)requestPropertyInfo.GetValue(request, null);

// Setting KeepAlive
//webRequest.KeepAlive = false;
// or better use diffrent protocol
webRequest.ProtocolVersion = System.Net.HttpVersion.Version10;

return request;
}
