Does changing web.config deletes all cache objects?

Question

If i change the web.config file , does my application delets all cache objects ?

Answer 1

When you change the web.config file, your application pool resets. This will clear out any in-memory caches that exist in the process space of the application pool.

If you cache items on the disk or in a database (or other shared resource not in the same memory space as you application), the cache will not be cleared.
