App configuration file (App.config)

[xoph]

:cool:I started investigating about application configuration files. It seems that window based application can only have one config file that must reside in the application folder. This file must be named as follows: myapp.exe.config Does anybody know if it is possible to avoid the double extension .exe.config and have only .config ? (I would like to avoid double extensions files, because it may be seen as a virus) I tried to replace myapp.exe.config by myapp.config but it did not work. Any suggestions? Thanks Chris

create a new AppDomain and set the ConfigurationFile property.

Thanks for suggesting creating a new AppDomain. I found out that I don't need to create a new AppDomain, I can just set the application file of the current AppDomain with the following: AppDomain.CurrentDomain.SetData("APP_CONFIG_FILE", @"C:\aaa\test.config"); :-DChris
