Methods

	Name	Description
	DeserializeElement(XmlReader, Boolean)	Reads XML from the configuration file.(Inherited from ConfigurationElement.)

WorkflowRuntimeSection contains settings specified by a <section> of type WorkflowRuntimeSection in a configuration file. The settings specified in a WorkflowRuntimeSection are used to initialize the workflow run-time engine. Your application can call the WorkflowRuntime.WorkflowRuntime(String) constructor to initialize the workflow run-time engine from the appropriately named section of the configuration file.

If your application does not use configuration files, but you still want to initialize the workflow run-time engine from a WorkflowRuntimeSection you can configure a WorkflowRuntimeSection in your application and call the WorkflowRuntime.WorkflowRuntime(WorkflowRuntimeSection) constructor. For example, your application might store configuration parameters in a database or it might operate in a trusted environment where configuration files are not used
