I would like to be able to read the entire document, and make changes to it before run time. I am making a deployment tool for my application, and most of my customers do not want to rename their servers, nor do I want to have to rename the server in the connection string section of the app config file.
View 3 RepliesI am creating a windows service in .Net 4.0 and testing some functions of said service with a windows forms client by referencing the service project.The service project has an App.config file and that file looks like this: [code]a null reference error is thrown because my connection string is not loaded.The only connectionStrings that are loaded are from the machine.config file located in [code]If I create an application scope setting for the service, I can get that setting by using the My.Settings.setting so it's not like the App.config file is not being read.why are my connectionStrings not being loaded from the App.config file?When referencing a project(parent) from another project(child), the child's app.config is used even if the parent's classes are being used.Thus, I can get the connectionStrings to show up if I copy them over to the child's app.config. When trying to open it manually, my currentDirectory was of the child, not the parent (strange how it did not throw an exception - it wouldn't have been able to find the config file it just silently used the machine.config.
View 4 RepliesI have VB.net console application. I would like to read the (ConnectionString) from a web.config.
Web.config is located at a particular path in my virtual PC, say "C:/mywebConfig"

I tried to add the web.config in my Project, but still get the error.
I'm trying to use the following command:

However, xmlFilePath shows up as Nothing after that line of code is run.
What's the correct code to get a setting out of the web.config file in an ASP.NET application?
NOTE: Although you can add keys individually to the <appsettings> tag, I'm trying to figure out how to use it with the "Settings" tab in the project's properties.
Environment: .Net 3.5 VB.net (C#ok too) I wrote a multi-project WinForms app that needs to load a couple dozen variables from a client section of a config file based on user's selection of client. Also some program variables need to be loaded as well. So far so good, I put them in an app.config file.In the appsettings section I put the main program variables. e.g.

View 1 RepliesIs there a simple way to read from the global application.exe.config file from a dll?urrently I am loading the file as an XmlDocument but I wonder if there is a better solution.That's what I mean:If I create a new WinForms Project I have a Settings Tab in the Project properties where I can add some simple values (And I want to access the per Application settings, not the user beased ones).From my code I can access these values with:
Console.WriteLine(Properties.Settings.Default.SomeValue);
The Settings class is autogenerated in the file Settings.Designer.cs.Now I have the case where a dll need's to read the settings from the Main Application's config file. Is there a simple way to achive this? Currently I am reading the file as an XML Document.
I have a WCF service with a setting I created in the WCF application property editor (settings tab).It has created something like the following property in MySettings class in the Settings.Designer.vb file. Notice the DefaultSettingValueAttribute is set to "This is the OLD value". That's my value for local testing.
<Global.System.Configuration.ApplicationScopedSettingAttribute(), _
Global.System.Diagnostics.DebuggerNonUserCodeAttribute(), _
Global.System.Configuration.DefaultSettingValueAttribute("This is the OLD value")> _
[code]....
The problem is after restarting the WCF service (rebooting the server machine completely), it never reads the new value. It continues to use the old value that was set as the default value in the designer file.I think this must have to do with file permissions, but I don't see anything in the event log that indicates a problem. It's like the WCF service isn't even trying to read the web.config file.Why isn't the service reading the settings value from the web.config file?
In VS2010 how can I write and read some configure strings in app.config.
I wanted to add PrinterPort, PictureDirectory, ApplicationDirectory,LastImage, ecc
Basically i have a .net application that has a directory path stored in the app.config file. this directory path outputs xml files that will be read by an asp.net web page.
Is there any way i can get the asp.net web page to read the directory path stored in the app.config file? Should i look to use the web.config file at all?
I am using ASP.NET 3.5. When the user click on say btnSubmit I want to first execute some JavaScript code and then execute some C#/VB.NET code.
Is this possible? If so how would one do it?
I am using VB.NET 2010 with a solution that consists of class libraries and winform projects.
Each project has an app.config for it's specific needs. There are however, several settings that are common across all projects. I would like to implement a common config file to hold those, but that effort hasn't been very successful.
After much searching I developed a test program to play with and it was working until I moved the Globalsettings into a separate file. Below is a paste of my code along with the config files I've been experimenting with. I've added the references to system.configuration and made sure my config files are set to always copy to the output directory.
The code compiles, but GlobalSettingsLookup is never set to an instance of NamevalueCollection. I'm guessing it's because the ConfigurationManager can't load the section "GlobalSettings"(?) That's just a guess
My Code:
Dim GlobalsettingsLookup As NameValueCollection = CType(System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.GetSection("GlobalSettings"), System.Collections.Specialized.NameValueCollection)

How can i read my connectionstrings value which i stored in my app.config file (for windows application)?
i tried many times to use more than one option but i could not do it.
i am using VB.NET 2005 with framwork 2.
Added for my quick reference.When you use the following code to retrieve the values from config file in a library project.
Value = Configuration.ConfigurationManager.AppSettings("KeyName")
The application will look for this key in AppSettings section of calling assembly and may lead to unpredictable results.
[code].....
I have a program with various settings, all stored in the app.config file. Often, I have a need to edit the connection string setting. I cannot do so using the My.Settings.myConnectionStringVariable method, as this is read-only. What I would like to do is have a big text box, and simply load the entire app.config file into it. The user could modify whatever they wanted, click save, and the program would save the new edits to the app.config file, and restart the program. I don't have a huge need to only pull out the connection string, as getting the text for the entire config file would suffice. However, if it is easier to pull out just the connection string from the config file, that would work too.
View 1 RepliesDear Friends: I have some files in 1 folder directory that show "XML Configuration File" under type. But none of these files show the extension .config. The directory filesare like C0150,C0150_new,C0200,C0200_new etc. I need to change only 1 attribute of each of these files. I need to write a VS.Net project to do this. I have to send the .exe file(from bin directory of this VS.Net project) to my client and they will just double click the .exe file and it will change that attribute in all the .config files.
The C0150 file looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

I'm using AsyncFileUpload for uploading files, before saving file on server, i rename the selected file. How can I get this new file name in the client side?

I have an asp.net form which contains a dropdownlist which posts back to the server on change and populates second dropdownlist with some dates.
The form also contains other fields some of which are validated clientside and some server side.
Here's the problem I'm having. If I get a clientside validation error then try to change the dropdownlist, the second dropdown does not get populated. If I then change the first dropdownlist again, it works as expected.
Here's my submit button:
<asp:Button ID="btnSubmit" Text="Submit" runat="server" OnClientClick="Page_ClientValidate(); return checkPassengers();" OnClick="Page_Transfer" ValidationGroup="FormSubmit" />
[Code].....
I am trying to build a form that has a button on it that will open up a 2nd form that allows me to view and edit the connection string. I believe the connection string is also called app.config, and can see that in the Solution Explorer for the project.All I have managed to do is drag a button onto my main form and relabel it. I have no idea how to create code to access the connection string.
View 2 RepliesI recently updated an app that I wrote to allow the clients to run the app in read only mode disconnected from the database by serializing the typed dataset, and when they are offsite/offline instead of connecting to the database the serialized dataset is loaded. This has been working great and then I hit a major snag.
A majority of the graphs and reports are based on sql views that are typed views in the dataset. Of course offlline the tableadapters cannot run the sql views.
Does anyone know a way to run/fill the view with the already loaded dataset? I can add rows clientside so I'm inclined to believe there must be some way to fill the view clientside but I've been at this for a number of hours now and not making any real progress.
I have a class library (Named ADI), that needs some configuration settings from the project using it (like connectionstring, filesystem locations etc).

is there any tool to validate configuration file?
View 1 RepliesI have created a settings-file for my plug-in-based app. When the mainApp writes the settings to the file, the pluginApp should read the settings from the settings-file (when opening or at runtime even better), but somehow it reads the settings from the app.config-file. This means that the pluginApp never will read the settings according the values of the file.
View 4 RepliesOur main application has both a asp.net and winforms component. There is a class that is used by both sides and needs info from either the web.config or app.config files. The class itself does not know if it's on the client side or on the web server (at this point). We are getting errors when it's attempting read app.config when it's on the web side. Is there a way for the class to tell if it needs to read web.config or app.config?
View 1 RepliesI have an .net addin that loads w/outlook. Being a .NET assembly, I naturally have a .config file that you would expect. From my previous research, I named my app.config file to be Outlook.exe.config because outook is the executing assembly, and naturally, that's where you would expect that. This for the most part is fine.
In some installations, and I am not sure as to the conditions why, My addin will hunt for the config file under the dll name in another directory. So, more clearly stated, Office is in its directory, and my addin dll is in its own. So: MyAddin.dll.config vs. Outlook.exe.config. So, fine, I just made 2 copies of the config file and covered both cases. Now, I find that the addin is hunting for Outlook.exe.config in MY program directory (not the outlook dir)
FYI I log which config file is being used using: [Code] So, can someone tell me WHERE it is determined where the config file is read from, and if I can "Force" it to be used from a certain location?
