Is it possible to set clientcredentials for an WCF in App.config?
I would like to avoid doing this:
Using svc As New MyServiceClient
svc.ClientCredentials.UserName.UserName = "login"
svc.ClientCredentials.UserName.Password = "pw"
...
End Using
Rather the login and password should be part of the configuration.
I have a web service I'm trying to interface with however no matter what I try it is refusing to send the clients credentials along with the request.The security block in my app.config looks like
<security mode="Transport">
<transport clientCredentialType="None" proxyCredentialType="None" realm="" />
<message clientCredentialType="UserName" algorithmSuite="Default" />

I have a class library (Named ADI), that needs some configuration settings from the project using it (like connectionstring, filesystem locations etc).
I want to define these settings in my Windows Forms/Web Projects App.Config or Web.Config, like other settings.
Here is part of my app.config for my windows forms application:
<applicationSettings>
<PhotoImportRobot.My.MySettings>
<setting name="ADIImageRoot" serializeAs="String">
[Code]....
is there any tool to validate configuration file?
View 1 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?

View 2 RepliesI have inherited a rather large project consisting of an application written in VB6 and several DLL's and ActiveX controls written in VB6, VB.NET 1.1 and VB.NET 2. I want to change one of the settings for one of the DLL's written in VB.NET 2 that is in its application.dll.config file, but it seems to be having no effect.My main VB6 application (I will call it Alpha) has a configuration file (Alpha.exe.cnfig) which contains settings used by my VB.NET 1.1 DLL (which I will call Bravo). After calling Bravo, Alpha calls Charlie (my VB.NET 2 DLL). However, even though I have changed the application settings in Charlie.dll.config in the subdirectory where the DLL lives, it has no effect. I have tried putting Charlie's settings in Alpha's config file but this causes Bravo to fail with an automation error (which I think is because the format of the config files changed from .NET 1.1 and .NET 2).[code]If I try putting the applicationSettings section under directly beneath the appSettings section (i.e. as another child element of the configuration element) in Alpha.exe.config then Bravo.dll fails.

View 1 RepliesI have a solution with several projects and several developers, each with their ownenvironment (of course). To manage connection strings between each environment, I have created several app.config files for each environment: app.config.dev, app.config.qa, etcThe pre-build event simply copies the app.config.$(ConfigurationName) to app.config. This pre-build event is done for each project in the solution, and the connection string is included in each (including the test project).

how to setup my deployment project so that users can customize thier own settings in app.config? Which special folder in the File System browser should I add, Personal Data, Application Data, or Programs Menu? How do I add the app.config to the folder? What about the project output, should it also be in the same folder? If so, should the project output be taken out of the Application Folder, in other words, exist in one place? I tested my deployment and was shocked that the icon only opened on the test user's pc after installation. I have custom settings in the app.config file that have default values, but must be configurable for user specific settings.
View 3 RepliesI have difficulties figuring out a useful app.config structures for my program.What I am doing is writing a windows service, which watches several directories on a server for files being uploaded.My problem is making my program configurable for n folders when in each of those n folders, i need to watch for a different collection of filetypes
e.g. folder1: .dwg;
folder2: .dwg;.doc;.xls;
then when a new file is uploaded, for example a .dwg file to folder1,then i need to run program1 to convert the dwg to a dwf, and program2 to convert the dwg to a .swf.but that only if filetype is .dwg and folder = folder1. if a .dwg is uploaded for example to folder2, then it needs to be converted to a pdf.The closes i have come to make this configurable in a app.config file is this:
<Folder2 name="C:inetpubwwwrootCAFMFotos" filetypes=".dwg;.pdf;">
<action>
<add key="ExecutableAndPath" value="C:UsersMeDesktopverydocdwg2vec.exe"/>[code].........

I'm all set up, tracing is working wonderfully. Code snippet:
Trace.TraceInformation("Hello World")
App.config:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

That doesn't make sense to me: I just have to declare an instance of the BooleanSwicth to be able to manage (disable) tracing via the .config file? Should I like ... use ... the object somewhere?
Can values from web.config be read completely at runtime or does the application make a copy of the current web.config upon initialization.
Essentially, I'm wandering if I make a change to web.config if it will take effect on the users next postback or if they would need to initialize an entirely new page load. In particular, I'm interested in sections of the web.config like sesssionState and when a change to timeout would take effect.
I've never thought about it before; but I recently learned how I could modify the app.config file to add/remove trace listeners (for example, to redirect all of the Trace.WriteLine output to a text file).But I don't quite understand how it works? I know the corresponding C# code to do the same as the config (in this example) - does that code get generated/executed before my application's entry point?

As far as I understand all default settings of app.config settings is hard coded in the application and will generated on the fly in the first run.
If this is true then there is no good reason to deploy these files with an installer or in a zip package, am I right?
I've created a console VB.Net application and encrypted the app.config file with RSAProtectedConfigurationProvider.I've used an article http:www.codeproje...eAppConfig.aspx as an example for the Encryption. It works fine in an IDE on my XP desktop.Then I deployed my application to a Windows 2003 server. The package included the app's executable along with the encrypted app.exe.config file. However, the application failed on the server with the following exception:Unhandled Exception: System.Configuration.ConfigurationerrorsException: Failed to decrypt using provider 'RsaProtectedConfigurationProvider'. Error message from the provider: The RSA key container could not be opened.I decided to encrypt app.config on the server so I copied app.config and encrypted it. The app.exe.config looked encrypted and I ran the application. However, it failed: although it didn't raise an Rsa exception as before,
