Configuration Block - What to do if the file doesn't exist.

UJ
What do you do if the configuration file for you configuration block doesn't
exist? There doesn't seem to be an easy way to create the file. I could just
create the file but that implies I know the name of the file which I can't
figure out how to do unless I read in my app config file and parse through
the setting.

TIA - Jeff.

Doesn't Web.config if you are using a web application or
myappname.exe.c onfig if you are making a windows application work?
Normally that is where you place the settings in .NET applications.

Best regards

I simply keep running into exceptions when trying to integrate the block into my app. Here's what I've done thus far: 1. Installed the CMAB 2. Started a new C# project.

I was a Java developer so I'm used to using property files as a means to keep configuration settings for my apps. I'm wondering what options are there with ..NET? Some settings I want to include are like a root directory for a target program on the user's machine my app uses, which they would be prompted to supply at startup. Normally the registry is used for this but I'd rather not use the registry if possible. Isn't there some kind of...

Hi, I used the microsoft configuration block to store settings for applications in the past and this worked fine. But now I have the following situation and I do not know how to solve this: I want to write a windows service that stores its settings in a xml file using the configuration block.

I have started to use the new Enterprise Library (Jan 06) and have set up a skeleton project using the DAAB. This all seems to work fine apart from when I come to secure the app.config file via encryption. I have encrypted the connectionsettings block in the config file but obviously when I come to deploy the solution to other PC's, it cannot read the block as it doesn't have the keys to decrypt. I understand that as far as ASP.NET...
