And while on the subject of a debugger for SPs... There are commercial Stored Procedure debuggers available. And I've often wondered how they work. Presumably, each statement must be executed on the client such that the stored procedure's implementation is actually simulated. So the plans generated by a complex SP running in a third-party debugger will not necessarily correspond to the plans generated within the engine during actual execution. Which leads to a question... How/When are Stored Procedures prepared? A complex SP can have many different execution paths. Is each statement prepared as needed for each execution or are all statements prepared at once, during the initial prepare ?
