Configuration file wirter?

[goodmorningsky]

I can read Configuration file using

AppSettingsReader.GetValue(key, type);

 

But, I want to write value corresponding the key.

I counldn't find method like

AppSettingsWriter.WriteValue(key, type);

 

How can I do this? Is there api doning this?

Great question!

Although I think you wrote this during the 1.0 or 1.1 days 2.0 is supposed to simplify this process.

 

Acoording to msdn you can do the following:

 

Configuration config = ConfigurationManager.OpenExeConfiguration(ConfigurationUserLevel.None);
               config.AppSettings.Settings["mySetting"].Value = "myNewValue";
               config.Save(ConfigurationSaveMode.Modified,true);
               ConfigurationManager.RefreshSection("appSettings");

 

But I have no luck with this. No errors, just no writing to the config file.

I am in VS05 writing a 2.0 win form application.

 

Any suggestions?

It looks like you guys are using C# so my advice won't be very helpful...but if you were using VB8, I'd tell you to check out the My namespace.
