Dynamic updateing of Web.config file in ASP.net

[Matt D]

Hi,
I was wondering if anyone can tell me why dynamically
updating the web.config file causes ASP.NET worker process
to recycle and detroy all session states including
variables. Is this a known bug or is it by design. Do we
know why microsoft do not supply a method to write values
to the web.config file. Thank you to anyone who can give
me any clues to this problem.

Regards,
Matt,

I know it doesn't say so anywhere, but this is a classic asp newsgroup.
While you may be lucky enough to find a dotnet-savvy person here who can
answer your question, you can eliminate the luck factor by posting your
question to an appropriate group. I suggest
microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.aspnet.
