In visual studio 2008, when we press Ctrl+F5, the ASP.NET Development Server is launched to simulate a Web Server. I’m wondering what server does it simulate? IIS6 or IIS7? Is it possible to customize what server it simulate?
It doesn’t simulate a server as such, it runs on a server based on cassini that is written in .net and has source code available. I suppose it’s more similar to IIS6 in that it does not support the IIS7 integrated pipeline feature. You can always choose to have VS use II6 or IIS7 if it’s installed (depending on whether you have XP or Vista on your DEV PC).
