Error referencing key value from web.config.

[prabu.girirajan]

Hi,
I have a web application which internally calls certain web methods of
a web service. This web service has a interop to ATL COM Component and
that ATL component calls a .NET assembly.
I would like to access a key value in the .NET assembly. I added this
to the Web.Config of the Web Service however it didnt read the value.
I also tried adding to the Web.config of the Web application however i
am faced with the same problem.

Am I missing any configuration to get this working

Cheers
Prabu

Hi Prabu,

How do you configure web.config?

If you put a key under appSettings you can read it using the
ConfigurationManager.

//web.config
<add key="Mykey" value="MyValue" />

//code
string myKey = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["MyKey"];

Hi Morten
Thanks for your quick response.
The web.config setting is

<add key = "MaximumIterations" value="10" />

and in the code
maximumIteration =
Convert.ToInt32(System.Configuration.ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings["MaximumIterations"]);


I have got a method to return all the configuration setting. however
this just does not return anything.
private void GetAllAttributes()
{
for( int i = 0;
i<System.Configuration.ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings.Count; i++)
{
System.Diagnostics.EventLog.WriteEntry("My
Application",System.Configuration.ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings);
}
}

Well, your code should work, although in .Net 2.0 you should use
ConfigurationManager instead of ConfigurationSettings. Both should work..

Could you show me your web.config?
