How to kill a dll in memory?

hi,friends
when a shell extention or isapi dll is runned ,I will fail to recompile my project .I solve the problem by relogin the system frequently,but it is terriable.
So who can tell me how to kill the dll in memory.Software and program are both appreciated.

thanks a lot

if u wanna debug ISAPI application, just
read delphi's help at keyword:
"debugging, Web server applications,"

or u can do this:

edit the registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\W3SVC\Parameters
\CacheExtensions = 0

This can disable DLL's cache in memory.
then u can stop IIS service and restart
IIS service (not relogin),and kill the DLL.

cAkk :-)

Hi all,

inthe,

actually, I hope to find away to kill my dll from memory, but without restarting !! .. I am using ISAPI dlls on my websites .. which hosted with about 200 other websites in the same server .. Shutting server down is a fatal !!! .. Microsoft should offer a way to do that without restarting.

Hamid

hamid ,

obviously this is for testing purposes , i mean you wouldnt run some project dll on a realtime working internet hosting server till it had been tested thoroughly would you ..
