Configuration for a DLL?

[Hahnl Josef]

What is your suggestion to deal best with .Net 2.0 configuration for a DLL
assembly (outside every application)?
The DLL should handle the configuration itself.

Thanks for your effort!

If you derive from ApplicationSettingsBase your dll can load and save app
settings at the user level. Your DLL components can also derive the
IPersistComponentSettings interface.

Usually, however, I let the application decide how to configure the DLL
properties and document the configuration available.

If the Dll is referenced by the launching executable, it should have access
to the configuration settings that were read when the application started,
provided it has a reference to System.Configuration. Have you tried this?
