ASP.NET is using the watcher to detect file changes in order to recompile
them if necessary. It also watches web.config changes.
The following code shows the watcher implementation:
using System;
using System.Reflection;
using System.IO;
class Test {
public static void Main ()
{
FileSystemWatcher fsw = new FileSystemWatcher ();
FieldInfo fi = typeof (FileSystemWatcher).GetField ("watcher",
BindingFlags.Static | BindingFlags.NonPublic);
Console.WriteLine (fi.GetValue (fsw).GetType ());
}
}
The managed watcher is slow in detecting changes, because it has to
poll the files/directories. To avoid overloading the machine, it
checks for changes every 750ms.
For ASP.NET it's pretty irrelevant how fast changes are detected,
because only the information that something changed is important.
