Update ASP.NET web.config while still in process of client request
asp.net, web-config
Solution
The new `web.config` is effectively a copy, so an ongoing request will finish unaffected -- it will not pick up the changes. When the request is complete, the new `web.config` will be written over the old one and subsequent requests will work from the updated values (in a new application domain).
Problem
What happen if web.config gets updated while ASP (ASP.NET 2.0) server still process client request? - Will the process be killed? - If not, will the process read the updates in web.config. thanks for any input
