Hi Guys,
I was wondering if anyone was successful in setting up server to be
able to Debug from ASP.NET page into VB COM DLL. I tried all the tricks
I knew and I am still not successful with the process.

Thanks, Maxim

Hi Maxim,

The only way I know of is to use late binding. So, declare all
references to your com object 'as object' in VB.NET. You can then start
VB6, set breakpoints in the COM component and run the .net app.

To ease the pain a little bit, I'm using conditional compilation to
either declare the variables As Object or as the early bound type, e.g.

#if debugvb6 then
    dim myvbobject as object
#else
    dim myvbobject as MyClass
#end if

set myvbobject = createobject("mylib.myclass")

A drawback of this approach is that you cannot use types/structs defined
in the VB6 component in combination with late binding.

Ries,
What I found that you can declare the Object as referenced type you
just need to make sure that you have Symbolic Debugging enable. My issue
it refer to the Permission settings that I need to set when I am
debugging from ASPX --- to --- VB6.EXE. It does not want to pass through
permissions on DCOM server. I tried to use the fix with registry then I
got completely different Exception. Do you have any idea?

Thanks, Maxim
