.NET Forum / ASP.NET / Web Services / August 2005debug session on a webservice does not end
Hi All, I have a solution that has a asp.net app project and webservice project in it When I debug the asp.net app...and then terminate it...the webservice is still live...and aspnet_wp.exe is still live w/ it. I have to end task aspnet_wp.exe in order for the webservice part of the solution to end Is there a "right" way to terminate a webservice project when it is called from a asp.net project in a solution? Regards, Mekim Hi Mekim, Your web service request ends as long as your method finishes its execution. The aspnet_wp.exe keeps running because it is part of IIS. As such IIS keeps it running to handle subsequent requests without having to ‘warm up’ the service on every request. What do you mean by ‘the webservice part of the solution to end’? Which part is not ended when your method finishes? You can use iisreset.exe to restart IIS. Regards, Martin Kulov www.codeattest.com Hi Martin...thx for your response In the the webservice portion of the solution...the global.asax is still live ...even though the "start up project" 's debug session has been terminated. And...the only way to terminate that is to terminate the apnet_wp.exe :-/ Regard, Mekim > Hi Mekim, > [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > Martin Kulov > www.codeattest.com Hi mekim, That's the idea of global.asax file. What do you trying to achieve? Generally speaking it is not recommended practice to write custom code in global.asax file. Martin Hi Martin, In the webservice's global.asax file I create an object (private myClass1 as new classWhatever) on app_start to persist data between calls. The problem is that the object is not destroyed in app_end since it's not called when I terminate the main project during debug. hmmm...come to think of it...I'm not sure how app_end is ever called in a webservice project Regards, Mekim > Hi mekim, > > That's the idea of global.asax file. What do you trying to achieve? Generally speaking it is not recommended practice to write custom code in global.asax file. > > Martin Hi mekim, App_end is never called because the debugger gets detached from the aspnet_wp.exe process when you stop debugging. When detaching, it does not end the execution of the process. The process will end after some timeout elapse. You can add trace statements to see when this happen. IMHO it is better to avoid adding code to global.asax file in order to manage state. Why do not you use Session, of better yet – Cache class which can store your session state? Martin Hi Martin, well...that's silly...if I'm ending the debug session...it's good-bye app time...but I guess not...:/ A/w...in ref to your session pt...I'll tell u why i didn't use session...and p/ correct me 1-session adds overhead to each webservice call 2-what's wrong w/ using global.asax?

However in current ASP.NET version there are ways to store session state in database. It won't add any other overhead more than your class adds in global.asax >> 2-what's wrong w/ using global.asax? Nothing. I consider it bad practice since the code is placed in a location that does not belong to any page. Since web request are considered stateless and every page is alone for itself I prefer writing code in into each page source file. I makes finding the problems easier. From the ages of ASP 3.0 modifing the global.asa file causes the web server to restart the application and may be I am used not to touch global.asa? files also. Regards, Martin Kulov www.codeattest.com i just want to confirm that i need the aspnet_wp.exe to end after the webservice because i'm writing to a text file in the webservice method, so if the process of the aspnet_wp.exe doesnt end, the output file is still in use... so how can i overcome this issue? -- torkish Free MagazinesGet these publications absolutely FREE for up to 12 months.
