[RESOLVED] R/W app.Config
I am able to read my parameters from my app.config file
and did some googling and found that
Code:
System.Configuration.Configuration config = ConfigurationManager.OpenExeConfiguration(ConfigurationUserLevel.None);
config.AppSettings.Settings["oldPlace"].Value = "3";
config.Save(ConfigurationSaveMode.Modified);
ConfigurationManager.RefreshSection("appSettings");
but whaqt if OldPlace does not exist in the config and you need to add it rather than modifying it?
How do you do this?
Cheers

Marking it resolved doesn't help additional readers if you don't post the answer. It would be helpful if you would added the resolution when you mark the thread resolved.

Re: [RESOLVED] R/W app.Config
Code:
try
{
config.Save();
}
catch (ConfigurationErrorsException err)
{
MessageBox.Show("can not Save to Config\r\n" + err.ToString());
}
ConfigurationManager.RefreshSection("appSettings");
ok . Fair enough i guess we have to share our solutions as well as the probelms and surely it did not require a fuse to be blown especially by a moderator who puts you on a ignore list because you are not psychic.
Sometimes we all so busy about getting teh work done that we forget to do things properly that is to come back here and post teh solution.
It is not a big deal and defintly does not require coming up with shameless and title and kindergarden Booing.
We all come here and use this forum to ask a Q and hopefully get an answer.
Maybe when the thread is marked as resolved it woudl be nice to pop up a text forcing the user to enter its final solution to the problem before closing it.
I have been using this forum for years and this attitute from the codeguru was definitly not something I ever expected to see.
A simpler " Please post your solution before marking it as resolved from now on " could have solved a lot of this. . That is what a moderator is supposed to do right?

Re: [RESOLVED] R/W app.Config
Saeed, this is the last thing I will say in this thread.
Yes, I was being childish, fair enough. But, you were being selfish.
In your own words we have to share our solutions as well as the probelms
CG is a massive resource for a lot of newcomers especially. We are all here to learn and to help. By sharing our solutions makes it easier for the next person that encounters the very same problem. By not posting solutions, other members will also notice it, and regard you as a person that just takes and takes ( not saying this is the case - I don't know you ), then, more and more members will indeed ignore you. We both don't want that to happen. I believe every person on this forum ( and all the others ), is entitled to an answer to his / her question. Evrey person is entitled to learn.
I work with 400 plus, students every day, and I see so many people not wanting to learn, this makes me immensely sad.
I also believe that sharing doesn't cost anything, helping doesn't cost anything, fine, I suppose it's each person's perogative to help or not to help.
Me being a moderator has nothing to do with it, I'd like to see myself as a member eith super powers . My main strengths are mostly in VB. I also like to learn new things, like C#. And the more I hang around in this forum, the more I learn.
Yes, my behaviour as a Mod was probably childish, fine, but I have a job to do, and make sure people get answers. Yes, I have blown my fuse a bit, if you really want to see me blow my fuse, do some searches through some of my posts It's not something to brag about I admit.
This all could've been avoided.
Now, thank you for sharing your solution, and [i]Please post your solution before marking it as resolved from now on[i]

Re: [RESOLVED] R/W app.Config
I'm sorry for maybe a too easy question but I'm a beginner
I'm trying to work with a config file, but vs doesn't recognize such
a types like:
System.Configuration.Configuration config = ConfigurationManager.OpenExeConfiguration(ConfigurationUserLevel.None);
and
ConfigurationManager.RefreshSection("appSettings");
I've written down using System.Configuration;
what could be the problem?

Moshe, since this thread has been resolved, you'll want to start a new thread for this question.

Re: [RESOLVED] R/W app.Config
If such is the situation then one can lock the RESOLVED threads as anyways you have to opne new threads for getting the problems resolved related to similar problems.

win7 x86, VS 2008 & 2010, C++/CLI, C#, .NET 3.5 & 4.0, VB.NET, VBA... WPF is comming
remeber to give feedback you think my response deserves recognition? perhaps you may want to click the Rate this post link/button and add to my reputation
private lessons are not an option so please don't ask for help in private, I won't replay
if you use Opera and you'd like to have the tab-button functionality for the texteditor take a look at my Opera Tab-UserScirpt; and if you know how to stop firefox from jumping to the next control when you hit tab let me know
