I am trying to debug a
HTTP Handler in Visual Studio and the break point is not getting hit. Does anyone have an idea on how to go about debugging
HTTP Handlers in Visual Studio?
I am using VS 2010 Premium, .NET 4.0 on a Windows 7 machine. In my Web Application I have a
HTTP Handler in /HTTPHandler/TrackingHandler.cs
The following is in my web config file:
<system.webServer>
<handlers>
<add name="TrackingHandler" path="/tx/*" verb="*" type="ProjectNamespace.TrackingHandler" resourceType="Unspecified" preCondition="integratedMode" />
</handlers>
</system.webServer>
My
HTTP Handler looks like below
namespace ProjectNamespace
{
public class TrackingHandler : IHttpHandler
{
public bool IsReusable
{
get { return true; }
}
public void ProcessRequest(HttpContext context)
{
//Breakpoint on the very first line below
string tracker = Path.GetFileName(context.Request.PhysicalPath);
.......
}
}
}
I start my Web Application using any random page in Visual Studio Debug using the builtin Web Server. I then maually edit the URL to point to the /tx/ directory and some random string after it. For e.g. my current URL looks like http://localhost:53699/tx/sdfs. I thought this should pull up the breakpoint on the first line of ProcessRequest() but it does not.
I’d be grateful for any ideas.
O. O.
