Link from ASP.NET yellow error page directly to VS source code


When an ASP.NET application errors out and generates the yellow-screen display, I'd like to create some kind of link from the error page which would jump directly to the correct line of code in Visual Studio.

I'm not sure how to approach this, or if there are any tools already in existence which accomplish it - but I'd love some feedback on where to start.

In the event that generating a new error page is necessary, is it possible to replace the standard yellow screen across an entire webserver, rather than having to configure the customized error output for each application?


Solution

  • You would probably need to embed an ActiveX control in the page for something like that to be possible.
