I have two projects in a solution.
Project 1 is a user control. In this user control I define an application
setting to store a url the user control needs to talk to.
Project 2 is our flagship product which has a reference to project 1 and
uses the user control defined in project 1 on a form in project 2.
When I compile project 1 and look at the bin I see the .dll/.exe and most
importantly the project1.exe.co nfig file which contains my application
settings.
When I compile project 2 and look at the bin I see the .dll for project1 but
no project1.exe.co nfig file. I do see a project2.exe.co nfig file but when I
look in it, the application setting from project 1 is not there.
When I run project 2 the user control doesn't work because it can't find the
application setting for the user control. I tried putting
project1.exe.co nfig file in the bin folder for project 2 but again it didn't
work.
I hope this made sense. Let me know what you think. Thanks!

why not make a property for your user control for to store a url the user
control needs to talk to.??

I guess that is one solution...but I am implementing this control in several
applications and I didnt want to have to implement code to set the property
for the url in each application that implements the control.

Did you try putting a project1.dll.co nfig there instead? Presumably project2
uses a dll version, not an exe version of project1. I'm pretty sure a dll.config
file will be successfully be read by a dll in the same folder.
Having said that, it makes sense to me for each app to configure the dll as
needed. Otherwise why is it a configuration setting in the first place?
If I'm reading correctly, you're asking where to put the configuration
file (dll.config) information for the .dll, right? I went through
this same issue a while ago - see http://tracyhunt.blogspot.com/2007/1...g-net-dll.html.
Nutshell: There is no config file for a .dll - you put all the .dll's
configuration information in the consuming application's config file.
There are some gotcha's, though, and the referenced post details how
to do it.

I, too, am getting nasty FileNotFound exceptions. I've read, and

track, though it does happen often.

Hi all,
I have a really strange situation, but I believe that there is someone else
who has already experinced the same, and is willing to help me!
I made an application using VS 2005 in C#, which uses one setting from
*.exe.config file with 'user' scope. That is a server address, for example.
I wanted to setup that parameter during installation. So, I included one

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
