ConfigurationUserLevel Enumeration
Assembly: System.Configuration (in system.configuration.dll)
| Member name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
| None | Get the Configuration that applies to all users. | |
| PerUserRoaming | Get the roaming Configuration that applies to the current user. | |
| PerUserRoamingAndLocal | Get the local Configuration that applies to the current user. |
Use ConfigurationUserLevel to specify which configuration file is to be represented by the Configuration object returned by ConfigurationManager.OpenExeConfiguration and System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.OpenExeConfiguration.
Application configuration files are in the same directory as the application and have the same name, but with a .config extension. For example, the configuration file for C:\System\Public.exe is C:\System\Public.exe.config.
Applications use a global configuration that applies to all users, separate configurations that apply to individual users, and configurations that apply to roaming users.
The following example shows how to use the ConfigurationUserLevel enumeration. This example is part of a larger example to be found at ConfigurationManager.
' Modify a custom section. Show how to use the ' OpenExeConfiguration(ConfigurationUserLevel) method. Shared Sub ModifyCustomSection() ' Get the application configuration file. Dim config As System.Configuration.Configuration = _ ConfigurationManager.OpenExeConfiguration( _ ConfigurationUserLevel.None) Console.WriteLine(config.FilePath) Dim custSection As CustomSection = _ config.Sections(customSectionName) custSection.FileName = "newName.txt" custSection.MaxIdleTime = New TimeSpan(0, 15, 0) custSection.MaxUsers = custSection.MaxUsers + 10 If Not custSection.ElementInformation.IsLocked Then config.Save() Else Console.WriteLine("Section was locked, could not update.") End If End Sub 'ModifyCustomSection
