Configuration :: Can't Access AppSettings From Web.config - ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings Is Empty?

Jun 12, 2010

i have stored settings in the AppSettings section of the web.config file.

I'm trying to access these settings via System.Configuration.ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings, but the AppSettingsCollection is empty. So I can't access this settings.

The strange thing is that this is working on my development machine, but is failing on the production machine. Previous versions of the web application have also worked on the production machine. I'm not aware of any modifications that could couse this.

I have also tried using ConfigurationManager and WebConfigurationManager without success.

C# - AppSettings Vs ApplicationSettings. AppSettings Outdated?

Feb 28, 2010

I've got some question about two ways to save settings in the web.config.

Appsettings:

Look in web.config
<appSettings>
<add key="key1" value="value1"/>
<add key="key2" value="value2"/>
</appSettings>

Usage in code-behind:

ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["key1"];
ApplicationSettings/ Properties (autogenerated by using the 'properties'-tab in the project)
Look in web.config
<applicationSettings>
<Projectname.Properties.Settings>
<setting name="Testenvironment" serializeAs="String">
<value>True</value>
</setting>
</Projectname.Properties.Settings>
</applicationSettings>

Usage:

Properties.Settings.Default.Testenvironment

So, what the difference between these two storage possibilities of settings in the web.config? As far as I can see, a downside of the appSettings is that you have modify the web.config yourself and the appSettings are not strong tiped, where as the applicationSettings are. Both are replaceable with in a web deployment project.As far as I am concerned, there is no use for appSettings. Am I missing something here? Which is the historically seen older one?

Configuration :: Web.config AppSettings - Keys Referencing Other Keys?

Dec 7, 2010

My current project has many peripheral systems and many different environments (testing, integration, development etc). As expected, we're using .config files to dynamically manage everything.

Instead of updating each relavant key when deploying to an environment, I was hoping there was a way to change 1 key only. Such as:

<add key="Environment" value="Development"/>

<add key="WebServiceLocation" value="http://<<Environment>>/text.asmx"/>

I've done some searching and haven't come up with an elegant solution. I'm aware that .config files can make use of system variables, but this seems like a bit of a high wire act.

I've set an AppSetting key for my root directory in my web.config file and now I'm going back through my site and changing all link and resources to use this key. Then If the domain ever changes I can just change one line of code and not worry about links breaking. I'm not quite sure however how to use this when I register my header and footer user controls.

How To Improve CM.AppSettings References

Mar 3, 2010

ASP.NET 3.5 Classes throughout our solution referenced ConfigurationManater.AppSettings[""] to get appSettings (from web.config).

We decided we weren't happy with that. Folks were mistyping appSetting key names in code (which compiled fine), and it was cumbersome to track usages. And then there's the duplicated strings throughout the codebase as you reference the same appSettings all over the place.

So, we decided that only one class would be allowed to reference the ConfigurationManager, and the rest of the solution would reference that class when it needed the value of a certain appSetting. ConfigurationManater.AppSettings[""] was static, so we exposed a bunch of static read-only properties off of our single Settings class.

[Code].....

And now we're injecting the ISettings instance as a dependency of the objects which use settings values (the class/interface are in a project that everyone can reference without problems).

In places where we can't inject an existing instance (e.g. Global.asax), we construct a new instance into a static field.

Given all of that, what would you recommend we change, and why?

ASP MVC - ConfigurationManager Cannot Find Appsettings?

Oct 27, 2010

I am using MS Test to test one of my controller's actions. This method uses the ConfigurationManger to read appSettigns from the web.config. For some reason ConfigurationMangager is not able to find the appsettings.In NUNIT I would just make sure to add a copy of the webconfig file to the test project so that it is available when running in that context. However this is not working for me.

C# - AppSettings Fallback / Default Value?

Sep 21, 2010

For each appSetting I use, I want to specify a value that will be returned if the specified key isn't found in the appSettings. I was about to create a class to manage this, but I'm thinking this functionality is probably already in the .NET Framework somewhere?

Is there a NameValueCollection/Hash/etc-type class in .NET that will let me specify a key and a fallback/default value -- and return either the key's value, or the specified value?

If there is, I could put the appSettings into an object of that type before calling into it (from various places).
