A GLOBAL_NOTIFICATION_STATUS value.
When a global module has registered for the GL_FILE_CHANGE event notification, IIS will call the module's OnGlobalFileChange method when a file within the scope of a Web site is changed.
Note
Global modules can register for the GlobalFileChange event notification by registering for GL_FILE_CHANGE in the module's RegisterModule function.
IIS creates an IGlobalFileChangeProvider interface and passes the interface to a module's OnGlobalFileChange method. Developers can use this interface to retrieve information about the file that was changed.
The following code example demonstrates how to create a global-level HTTP module that uses the IGlobalFileChangeProvider::GetFileName method to retrieve the path to a file that has been modified. The module then writes the path of the file to a log entry in the Event Viewer.

Your module must export the RegisterModule function. You can export this function by creating a module definition (.def) file for your project, or you can compile the module by using the /EXPORT:RegisterModule switch. For more information, see Walkthrough: Creating a Global-Level HTTP Module By Using Native Code.
You can optionally compile the code by using the __stdcall (/Gz) calling convention instead of explicitly declaring the calling convention for each function.
