Access app.config values ​​from another project

Question

There are two executable projects in my solution. One of them is the main program, and the other only after a successful installation. The primary program (REase) has an app.config file that has a connectionString that is required by another program (DBUpdater).

How can DBUpdate access app.config for REase?

Answer 1

You can use the OpenMappedExeConfiguration method if the app.config file name for REase is known to DBUpdater.
