Reading a config file from a .DLL

R

Ray Stevens

I have a dotnet wrapper service running on a service that calls one of our
custome components. I would like to read the appsettings section from a
config file, but because this is a class file reather than an .exe,
app.config is not configured as [appname].exe.config when compiled.

What is the best way to read the app.config file from the .dll?

The configuration for your DLL goes into the app.config file for the exe
itself.
