How do I prevent the app.config from being integrated into a .net Library (dll)

Question

When I compile the library, all the settings in Settings.Settings are integrated into the DLL. how do I prevent this?

Answer 1

View the properties of the Settings.settings file and set the Build Action to Resource, Copy to Output Directory to Do Not Copy.

This should create you a dll.config file where you can edit the settings outside of building.
