title: SQL Server Profiler deprecation - Replacement?
body: <p>I am developing ASP.NET and SQL Server applications, sometimes i am having trouble with a SQL Query, and i would like to see the SQL Servers "response" and not just the ASP.NET error message (Which is not always very helpfull)</p>
  
  <p>The Profiler.exe tool in SQL Server is capable of this, but im reading on MSDN that Microsoft is planning to deprecate the tool.</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>We are announcing the deprecation of SQL Server Profiler for Database Engine Trace Capture and
    Trace Replay. These features will be supported in the next version of SQL Server, but will be
    removed in a later version. The specific version of SQL Server has not been determined. The
    Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Trace namespace that contains the Microsoft SQL Server Trace and
    Replay objects will also be deprecated. Note that SQL Server Profiler for the Analysis Services
    workloads is not being deprecated, and will continue to be supported.</p>

  <p>They don't mention what tool will replace profiler.exe </p>
  
  <p>Does anyone know anything about that?</p>
  
  <p>And are there any alternatives to profiler if i want to see (recent?) unsuccessful queries?</p>
