properties file

[ffmelo]

I need something like java.util.Prope rties class...
I want to store properties in a text file and to get at runtime.

Example in java:

text file
------
propertieName1= propertieValue1
propertieName2= propertieValue2
propertieName3= propertieValue3
------

So, using Properties class I can get the properties by name.
And I can change the properties values without need to compile the
aplication again.

Thanks.

Hi,

you can store you properties in your app.config file:

<configuratio n>
<appSettings>
<add key="PropertyNa me" value="value"/>
</appSettings>
</configuration>
and get them via:

string s =
System.Configur ation.Configura tionSettings.Ap pSettings["PropertyNa me"];

Assuming you just changed values and not key names, no - you just need
to restart the application for those changes to take effect.

If you are talking about the file app.config that visual studio uses then you *will* need to perform a "build" as this is the point at which the app.config is copied with the correct name to the target directory.

Ah - good point. I didn't notice the '.' and thought he said app
config, meaning just the config file created from web.config or
app.config.

Sorry!
