UNIX style HUP for .Net apps?

[Steve]

Is there a UNIX style HUP call for .Net apps to make them keep running,
but reread their .config files?

Thanks,
Steve

Not many Windows/.NET apps have ".config" files....

Why doesn't the transmission in my new Dodge Viper resemble the transmission
in my 1979 El Camino? This is in essence what you are asking.

Plenty do. It's the recommended way of storing configuration
information for .NET applications.

Not really. He's asking what the best way of telling an app to reload
its configuration is. I don't think it's an unreasonable question -
it's just unfortunate that I don't know the answer

In 1.x atleast, the frameworks configuration system was a one time only
thing. I don't know if 2.0 changes that.
