Restart IIS7 webapp for debug in VS2008
- by spender
I'm developing an ASP.NET asyc generic handler which uses a static System.Threading.Timer instance to feed data to the response output stream while the context is in the asynchronous phase.
I'm having issues at startup that I'd like to debug.
Currently, because of the long-lived nature of the timer, I'm manually killing w3wp.exe in order to cause the application to restart. I'm aware that there are other ways to do this, but this is the best workflow I can find!
Isn't there a way to force a cold start when I hit f5, instead of the standard VS approach of attaching to the existing IIS process?
