gwbarchive

**[Original Post Date: 9th October 2005]**I just finished implementing WIVisualizer, a WindowsIdentity debugger visualizer for Visual Studio 2005. It displays important details like:

  • Username
  • Authentication type
  • Impersonation Level
  • Account type – System or Guest
  • Anonymous or Authenticated identity
  • Windows groups the identity is member of

Here’s a screen-shot for the same:

It has been built using the Visual Studio 2005 Release Candidate and can be downloaded from 

here. To install, simply copy the DLL file to <Visual Studio 2005 Installation Folder>\Common7\Packages\Debugger\Visualizers folder.
