SPM040201: SPWebConfigModifications

The metrik counts the classes in assemblies with calls to web.config modifications. It counts every call to the property Microsoft.SharePoint.Administration.SPWebService.WebConfigModifications or Microsoft.SharePoint.Administration.SPWebApplication.WebConfigModifications. This includes add and delete of modifications.

The metrik may also count calls to properties which are not changing the items in the collection (Count, Contains, GetType etc.) and may lead to incorrect results. The metric only counts the changes to the WebConfigModifications collection, but finally an Update() for SPWebApplication or SPWebService is necessary to apply the changes. If the Update() is not called in the code the changes are not applied and the metric leads to incorrect results
