Enterprise Library Data Configuration

[dirk.dircksen]

Hi

I'm busy migrating code from the June 2005 Enterprise Library edition
to the January 2006 edition.
One of the cool things about the June 2005 edition (for me, in any
case) was the fact that I could specify a location for a single
configuration file which would hold all my connection information for
multiple applications.
Due to the fact that I work in a large environment with many
applications accessing multiple databases, this was ideal due to the
fact that if something changed, I only had to change 1 configuration
file for all my applications.
It seems that this functionality is missing in the January 2006 EntLib
edition. Has anyone run into the same problem and come up with a
solution?
I would, ideally, like to have 1 configuration file (like
dataConfiguration.config used in June 2005 EntLib) to handle all my
connection information.
I am aware that I could change the EntLib code to suit my needs, but
surely this has come up before or has been addressed by something I'm
overlooking?
Thanks

Dirk

I know what you refer to but just lazy to flip. Well, I can put you
connection string to app.config for winapp and web.config to webapp.
