In ASP.NET Webforms, is there a way to check (at runtime) if a website as been pre-compiled or not?

Question

In ASP.NET Webforms, is there a possiblity to check at runtime if website as been precompiled or not ? (eg : a property that return a boolean)

To deploy a ASP.NET webforms website, there is two possibilities : to run website by just copy paste all code, or use compiler (eg :aspnet_compiler.exe ) to precompile code.

If checking modification date of dll files works ? – sino Nov 25 '13 at 14:04 — sino, Nov 25 '13 at 14:04

Yes, there's a built-in property for that: BuildManager.IsPrecompiledApp.

See https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.web.compilation.buildmanager.isprecompiledapp%28v=vs.110%29.aspx for the full reference (it doesn't say much).
