});

%>

/index.asp

<!--#INCLUDE VIRTUAL="/aspjs/head.asp"-->
<!--#INCLUDE VIRTUAL="/aspjs_modules/mssql/index.asp"-->
<%

var sql = require("mssql");
var conn = new sql.Connection(app.get("dbconfig"), function(err) {

Debugging

The entire contents of the console is redirected to browser's console. A simple page with console.log("env", app.get("env")); results in:

You can capture stack traces of caught errors.

This can't be done with uncaught exceptions. On the other side, uncaught exceptions comes with location and line number.

You can inspect objects the same way you're used to.

console.log(myobject);
