Feature Only in Enterprise Edition   This feature is supported only in Visual C++ Enterprise Edition. For more information, see .

The following four components are involved in using Visual C++ Enterprise Edition to debug ISAPI DLLs and filters:

  • Web browser for accessing the IIS server to be debugged.

  • Microsoft's Internet Information Server (either full IIS for NT Server or Peer Web for NT Workstation)

  • Microsoft Visual C++ Enterprise Edition

  • SQL Server 6.5.

The web browser can run on any computer and does not require any special setup options.

You must run the Visual C++ debugger on the same computer that is running IIS in order to debug the ISAPI DLLs and filters and SQL source. This is because you must use the Visual C++ debugger to debug the INETINFO.EXE. That is, you cannot run the debugger and the IIS on different computers.

You must also configure SQL Server as an NT service.
