在C＃中更新配置文件

Question

I am creating an update to my companies system that will be running on several clients and I have two config files, the old config file and the newer version. Is there any way that I can compare the both files and check the differences to add to the older file what I have new in the first one? Keep in mind that the files may have different info and the only thing that I need to add/change is the keys. For example, if a key is different change the older to that new "version", if a key doesn't exist in the older files add it.

they keys will have the exact same name but may have different values. Plus there could be a new key that doesnt exist in the older file and I need to add it

I will leave an example of the files for you to see,

Any help would be appreciated.

Answer 1

Code went like this and it works like a charm:

public void UpdateService(string FilePathOld, string FilePathNew, string LatestVersion)
{
        Dictionary<string, string> Old = new Dictionary<string, string>();
        Dictionary<string, string> New = new Dictionary<string, string>();

        if (ExisteFicheiro(FilePathNew) == true && ExisteFicheiro(FilePathOld) == true)
        {
            ExeConfigurationFileMap configOld = new ExeConfigurationFileMap();
            configOld.ExeConfigFilename = FilePathOld;
            Configuration config = ConfigurationManager.OpenMappedExeConfiguration(configOld, ConfigurationUserLevel.None);

            ExeConfigurationFileMap configNew = new ExeConfigurationFileMap();
            configNew.ExeConfigFilename = FilePathNew;
            Configuration config2 = ConfigurationManager.OpenMappedExeConfiguration(configNew, ConfigurationUserLevel.None);

            KeyValueConfigurationCollection settings = config.AppSettings.Settings;
            Old = settings.AllKeys.ToDictionary(key => key, key => settings[key].Value);
            KeyValueConfigurationCollection settings2 = config2.AppSettings.Settings;
            New = settings2.AllKeys.ToDictionary(key => key, key => settings2[key].Value);

            foreach (var NewKey in New)
            {
                string value;
                if (Old.TryGetValue(NewKey.Key, out value))
                {
                    if (value != NewKey.Value)
                    {
                        //if (ExistsKey(NewKey.Key, false) == true)
                        Old[NewKey.Key] = NewKey.Value;

                    }
                }
                else
                {
                    Old.Add(NewKey.Key, NewKey.Value);
                }
            }

            foreach (var NewKey in Old)
            {
                string key = NewKey.Key;
                string value = NewKey.Value;
                if (config.AppSettings.Settings[key] != null)
                {
                    config.AppSettings.Settings[key].Value = value;
                    if (key == "Version")
                        config.AppSettings.Settings[key].Value = LatestVersion;
                }
                else
                {
                    config.AppSettings.Settings.Add(key, value);

                }
                if (config.AppSettings.Settings["Version"] == null)
                {
                    config.AppSettings.Settings.Add("Version", LatestVersion);
                }

            }
            config.Save();
        }
        else
        {
            Erro NovoErro = new Erro();
            Global.Erro = "O ficheiro \"OrcaService.exe.config\" ou o ficheiro \"Orca.exe.config\" não existem nos caminhos especificados!";
        }
