[How Do I:] Create and Use a Custom Configuration Section in an ASP.NET Configuration File

In this video Chris Pels will show how to extend the standard set of ASP.NET configuration settings with your own XML configuration elements. First, see how to create a configuration section handler which is required to interpret and process the information in custom XML configuration elements. During this learn how to use declarative model for defining the behavior of a configuration section handler. Next, see how to add a custom section handler and custom elements to an ASP.NET configuration file. Finally, see how to programmatically access the custom configuration data.

Yep, sound quality sounds like there are some pieces cut out. You'll have to redo this one. Cheers

Thanks for offering the video, butpretty pointless when from the 1st second the audio jumps.

I thought this site was about providing a source for showing off all the neat things asp??

Watching that video reminds me of listening to an old record with lots of scratches on it.

Get a grip, replace the videos!!

This is not the only videolike this either.

This video is of no use unless sound is corrected.

Hi Chris,

Thanks for your tutorial..

I read MSDN and stuff mentioned in your tutorial to polish up knowledge and run into this:

ConfigurationPropertyAttribute description.

This API supports the .NET Framework infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code.

Does it mean that your approach to save/get config parameters is not recommended by Microsoft?

Does any one know if they have plans to replace this. This video is real bad. The sound is all screwed up and I can't here what he says

Sound quality is a bit off, other than that - nice video.

good video but the sound is bad. But, what is the benefit of using sections of the config file as opposed to any other xml or class inheritance. Can you please be more specific on what is the benefit of implementing the variables in the webconfig. thank you .
