Hi group,

since beta  2 I get the follwing warning if using ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings["xxxxx"]: 

warning CS0618: 'System.Configuration.ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings' is obsolete: 'This method is obsolete, it has been replaced by System.Configuration!System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.AppSettings'

System.Configuration is in the uses clause and everything is fine with the runtime, despite the stupid warning on compilation. Stupid because - ther is no suche a thing like System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.AppSettings.

It appears in VWD Express 2005 as well as Visual Studio 2005 with ConsoleApps.

Regards

Since .NET 2.0, there now is a System.Configuration assembly dedicated to configuration related stuff. This assembly contains the ConfigurationManager. So, just add a reference to this new assembly.

Hmm. Thanks for your answer. But could you please be a bit more specific on this? As I wrote in my mail, System.Configuration is in the uses clause and adding System.Configuration.DLL manually did also not help...

What do you exactly mean by "adding manually"? Just right click on your project, click on 'add references' and select 'System.Configuration' from the .NET tab there. That should add a reference to this DLL properly.
