aspx & hsapplication object

[mulu]

I am working on an aspx page and try to get the hsapplication instance. All code I saw does this

Scheduler.haapplication hs = (Scheduler.hsapplication)Context.Items["Content"]
However, this always returns null. I actually only see 6 entries in Context.Items and no key "Content" but things like AspSession, ArteryFilter, etc. So how do I get the hsapplication instance.

Dim hs As Scheduler.hsapplication
        '' Get HS object
        hs = Context.Items("Content")
        Response.Write(hs.Version)

Above works for me. Is your .aspx file located in the HS3 html folder?

I got this working. I think what made it finally work is copying the dlls to C:\Program Files (x86)\HomeSeer HS3\html\bin. Before I had the bins in C:\Program Files (x86)\HomeSeer HS3\html\[MyProject]\bin.

Another (additional) potential reason could be that in my project I was referencing HS dlls like HomeSeerAPI.dll that were older than the ones from my HS installation.

In any case, considering that I have to copy dlls to a different directory and that HS starts everything, I can't really debug the aspx part anymore. I think in Visual Studio you can bind to an existing process. Is that the way to go or is there a better approach to debugging those websites?
