called Data, that must to read from the app.config that belongs the main
project a string connection. When i debug thats returns null. How can i read

as long as the dll and main exe in the same folder, the dll shud be able to
pick the conf up.

Hi,
I don't really remember if you can get it using
ConfigurationSe ttings.AppSetti ngs from the dll, I assume you tried this
right?
The other option you have is store this info in a static member of your
connection class from the Data dll.
cheers,

In fact, in a prj that im workin on. the main exe just a 'kick start' single
file with a bunch of resources. ALL functions have been built by DLLs
(roughly 8 prj DLLs). I hav never seen prob like this.
Hi,
I think the same, if the dlls are in the same appdomain then they should
"see" the ConfigurationSe ttings.AppSetti ngs cause it's static and visible in
the appdomain.

You should be able to get at any entry in the
<configuration> <appSettings> section from your DLL by
1) adding a "using System.Configur ation" to your using clause
and
2) Specifying
string myItem =
ConfigurationSe ttings.AppSetti ngs["MyConfigIt em"]
Can you SHOW us the app.config of the main app, and the relevant code
lines in your DLL?
Marc
If it is in a different section of the Configuration file, the
ConfigurationSe ttings class and the System.Configur ation namespace have lots
of methods for reading Configuration settings.

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
