Debugging Sharepoint Applications
When developing sharepoint apps, it becomes a pain in the neck to know what process to lint to (via debug-attach process) because it usually has many w3wp process running, and knowing which is the one you need is usually a trial-and-error thing. Spence Harbar has a very handy application called Application Pool Manager which lets you do several things: 1. Reset application pools, which is faster than iisreset. 2. Show the list of application pools running 3. Establish which application pool has which process ID associated, and refresh it if someone else recycled them (i.e. VSeWSS) This way, by just having a look at the tool's menu, you can know for sure what process ID you need to attach to!
