Fiddler has been de-throned

Anyone that has worked with me on a web project knows my love of Fiddler, and yesterday I ran across a new tool, Hawkeye.

It's a runtime read-write debugger for .Net windows controls, allowing you to attach it to any .Net winforms control on a running application, and sneak a peek at it's innards, properties, fields, methods, events etc.

Not only that, you can change those properties (perfect for altering someones copy of an internal app to have personalised labels, April 1st is coming people!), invoke the methods etc.

Aaand, if you have Reflector running, it provides a nice hook to view the code for these objects without rummaging through the normal class hierarchy in Reflector.

Of course I'm still on a web project where Hawkeye is less than useless, so Fiddler has to stay close to my heart for now.
