In which of the following locations will the configuration settings be stored while deploying an
ASP.NET application?
A.
Global.asax
B.
Microsoft IIS metabase
C.
XML files
D.
GAC
Explanation:
While deploying an ASP.NET application, the configuration settings are stored in XML files.Answer A is incorrect. Global.asax is an optional file that contains code for responding to global
events that occur in a Web application. There can be only one Global.asax file for an application. This
file resides in the root directory of an ASP.NET application. External users cannot download or view
the code written within the Global.asax file.Answer B is incorrect. The metabase is a repository for most Internet Information Services (IIS)
configuration values.Answer D is incorrect. Global assembly cache (GAC) is a machine-wide cache. It stores assemblies
that are designed to be shared amongst multiple applications on a computer. All assemblies stored
in the global assembly cache must have strong names.
