Is CodeDom required by a deployed web application?

Question

Is CodeDom needed for anything in a deployed application? Can the <system.codedom> section be safely removed from Web.config?

Answer 1

It's got to do with dynamic compilation in a multi-language environment. If you're not using more than one language, then you don't need it:
