VB6 + classic asp: developing activeX component

Question

hi all,

i've created a little activeX dll under vb6 which i'm running under classic asp.

my question: once the dll is compiled it has write-protection caused by the IIS (access denied). i have to completely stop the webserver, then recompile + restart the server again.

is there a more convenient way to do this? maybe even without having to compile?

thx

No there isn't more convenient way. Once the DLL is loaded into memory by IIS it is locked and cannot be modified. You could write a simple VB script client in order to test the ActiveX without passing by IIS.
