Easiest way to read a config file belonging to another application

问题

Other than using raw XML, is there an easy way in .NET to open and read a config file belonging to another assembly...? I don't need to write to it, just grab a couple of values from it.

回答1:

Here's MSDN on OpenExeConfiguration.

Edit: link to a how-to on eggheadcafe.com disappeared. Looks like EggheadCafe moved to NullSkull but dropped the article ID's.

回答2:

Have you tried ConfigurationManager and OpenExeConfiguration(path)? (in System.Configuration.dll)

回答3:

Or perhaps you could Serialize a simple class with the [Serializable()] attribute to a file... and deserialize in the other app...

http://www.dotnetperls.com/serialize-list
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.serializableattribute.aspx

The sample program shows one short bit of code to serialize to a file and another to read file...

You can serialize to a file, to XML, to SOAP...
