Where to put your code

 

When you use the functions to load and unload Coverage Validator from your service, it is important that you put the function calls in the correct place in your ISAPI extension.

 

Typically, this means that Coverage Validator is:

 

loaded as the first action in the GetExtensionVersion() function of your ISAPI extension.
 

unloaded in the TerminateExtension() function of your ISAPI extension.
 

 

Example source code

 

The source code shown below shows an example GetExtensionVersion() and an example TerminateExtension() used in an ISAPI, demonstrating where to load and unload Coverage Validator.

 

This example code logs errors. We strongly recommend that you do this in your example. Because IIS is a protected process that can't communicate to the outside world except via HTTP/HTTPS when anything fails during the loading and start of Coverage Validator the only means we have of communicating that failure to you is via the log file. Please use the log file, it will make debugging any mistakes very much easier, simpler and quicker than any other method.

 

This process is almost identical to working with a regular service, except that svlCVStub_StartCoverageValidator() is replaced with svlCVStub_StartCoverageValidatorForIIS().
