I was just wondering if someone could tell me if reading attributes is handled easily within the ConfigurationManager class since I am unable to find an easy way to do this (or a decent example via google). Basically I have a configuration section that looks like this,
I 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.
I'm tryign to read a specific attribute from a xml website using this code:
'this is the url im trying to read, tmpIn is a string that complete the url: Dim url As String = "http://maps.google.com/maps/geo?q=" & tmpIn & "&output=xml" Dim reader As New XmlTextReader(url)
[Code]....
The problem is tmpIn takes diferents values (string) when the function is used and sometimes this works, and othertimes it gives an error (Invalid character in the given encoding. Line 9, position 15.), but is not because of the url, is when it tries to read the coordinates...
I'm adding in asp.net (vb) an attribute to an image-button: imgButton.Attributes.Add("myAttr", "true") This is working fine. Now I want to read the attribute, but it does not work: If imgButton.Attributes("myAttr") = "true" Then ..doSomething.. How do I get this thing working?
I have an asp.net repeater. In this repeater I have in each itemtemplate two image buttons. If I'm clicking on an imagebutton, the other imagebutton in this row changes it's URL. I want that this URL is saved, after clicking on another row's imagebutton. So I'm adding in the repeater event ItemCommand Dim imgButton As ImageButton If e.CommandName = "imgBtn1" Then imgButton = CType(e.Item.FindControl("imgBtn1"), ImageButton) imgButton.ImageUrl = "myURL" [Code] ..... While debugging, it still skips everything, because all Attributes are empty (but actually they are not)!
I get an error when I try to build my project.'SSLAccessFiltercannot' be used as an attribute because it does not inherit from 'System.Attribute'. [code]
I have the following issue - I amcodinga move directoryfunction into my program. It all works fine except the resulting moved directory (the files within) appear(s) with a lock on them and they have become read only when they didn't start that way. I'd like to prevent the read only attribute from happening. Below is the code which moves the directory. I put it into a backgroundworker.
Private Sub bwMove_DoWork(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.ComponentModel.DoWorkEventArgs)
Quick background: I have a VB.NET application in which I was previously using ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings to read from app.config, and got an error message to change it to System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.AppSettings (as the first way is now obsolete)I did so, and I even have a reference to System.Configuration.dll AND the Imports statement at the top, but I am getting a "Name ConfigurationManager not declared" error message. Any suggestions?
CODE: It's pretty straightforward - I'm just checking if something exists, and if it does, I read from it:
If Not Exists(ConfigurationManager.AppSettings.Get(rep & "Email")) Then Return False End If
I grabbed some code from the internet to use as a base to write out a log file. When I pasted it into my project in VB.net 2003, I immediately got an error message stating:
[Code]...
This is glossed over as an easy thing, but when I try to create the reference by right clicking references and selecting add reference, then going to .net, the system.configuration.dll does not show up in the list. I then did a search for the dll on my system and found it in this location:
I then tried to register this DLL using "regsvr32 system.configuration.dll", but I get this error: ---- System.configuration.dll was loaded, but the DLLRegisterServer entrypoint was not found.I also attempted to browse for the file using the add reference utility and it gave me an error stating that a reference to the file could not be added. "This is not a valid assembly or COM component."
I'm really stuck at this point, I can't reinstall .net framework v2.0, the system won't let me. I can't create a reference and I can't get my program to work.
I'm trying to connect to a database in my app, i'm using the app.config file to provide the connection string to the application.When i try to stablish de connection i get the following error msg: ConfigurationManager is not a member of Configuration. [code]
I am developing a application which maintains log file. But I want to keep logfiles in Server's application folder or any place in server using app.config file. my main purpose is I will set log file path in app.config file. and as per setting in app.config my application generate and maintail logfiles.
(My question is similar to this one, but the code is slightly different, and the solution doesn't work for me)I'm trying to save settings changes to the app.config:
Dim config As System.Configuration.Configuration = ConfigurationManager.OpenExeConfiguration(ConfigurationUserLevel.None) config.AppSettings.Settings("HistoryRootDirectoryPath").Value = p_historySavingPath
I am using Visual Studio 2010 and referencing System.Configuration at the top "Imports System.Configuration" but I'm still getting not declared and could be inaccessible due to it's protection level. What now?
I am trying to upgrade a VB 2003 program to VB 2005.One warning I am getting is:

I have created a loop to display the results. In the snippet above, how do i grab the attributes name(name, length, slope, and level_of_height). I have used reader.name is giving me RUNWAY which is correct as the elements name. I tried getAttribute and it give me all of the values of the attributes, but not there name.
I have been parsing xml content using the xmlreader and cannot use the xml document but so far it works getting all elementcontent except for the attribute contents. I need to parse the link below found in the following entry;[code]
