ASP Explorer is an essential add-in for Visual Interdev that helps developers working on complex ASP-based applications or unfamiliar websites. It's a huge time-saver as it clears up the mess of include files.
Looking for a tool to help you understand complex ASP pages? Look no further than ASP Explorer! This powerful tool is designed to display the structure of ASP pages graphically, making it a huge timesaver for developers working on complex ASP-based applications or unfamiliar websites.
Whether you use it as an Add-In for Microsoft's Visual InterDev or on its own, ASP Explorer is an invaluable resource for any developer looking to streamline their workflow. It parses ASP source files, identifies the structure and order of their include files, and displays this information in an explorer-like tree view.
But that's not all. ASP Explorer can also help you identify dependencies by listing all ASP pages that use a particular include file. This can be incredibly useful in a number of ways. For example, it can help you quickly determine which include file an error or bug may reside in, locate a particular function that's called in the code but might reside in an include file several layers deep, or determine the possible impact changing an include file might have - and which pages should be tested as a result. It can even highlight potential problems such as duplicate includes.
It's important to note that ASP Explorer is not a broken link checker or site mapper. Instead, it analyses the server-side code in your ASP file and the links it has to other files on your server.
Overall, ASP Explorer is an essential tool for any developer looking to increase their productivity and reduce the potential for maintenance work causing further errors. With its clear depiction of file dependencies and easy-to-use interface, it's sure to be a welcome addition to any developer's toolkit.
