Programmatic Site "Reset"

Hi. Is there a way to make a call in ASP.NET that will effectively do exactly
the same thing is when you "touch"/change the web.config file? In other
words, I want to be able to programmaticall y cause the same kind of general
resetting that happens when you touch the web.config file.

Touching global.asax will do an application restart,
and calling appdomain.unloa d will do it, too.

iisreset resets the whole IIS server.

You can also restart individual application pools.

That's a great tip, Peter...

For VB fans...here's the equivalent VB.NET code :

Private Sub KillAspNetProce ss()
Dim processName As String = "aspnet_wp"
Dim os As System.Operatin gSystem = System.Environm ent.OSVersion
'Longhorn and Windows Server 2003 use w3wp.exe
If (((os.Version.M ajor = 5) AndAlso (os.Version.Min or > 1)) OrElse (os.Version.Maj or = 6)) Then
processName = "w3wp"
End If
For Each process As Process In Process.GetProc essesByName(pro cessName)
Response.Write( ("Killing ASP.NET worker process (Process ID:" + (process.Id + ")")))
process.Kill
Next
End Sub

Juan,
Thanks for the compliment but it wasn't even my idea. Can't remember where I
saw it. Maybe Jon Galloways' blog or something.

Hi all, I'm trying to send files to a client following the instructions of http://support.microsoft.com/?id=812406 Everything works fine, but if files are large and/or if the bandwidth is small, after a certain time, the error "The connection with the server was reset" occurs.

I'm having a BLAST writing this app as OOP as PHP allows. It's one thing to discuss the dance, but it's a thing of beauty to see the performance. I'm noticing that the constructor is a "reset" switch - just like the one on the front of my computer. Calling it seems to just dump all of the old values, free up all of the old resources, and return the object to a pristine state. However, I'm a *little* concerned about just using the...
