C＃更改设置文件名

Question

In C#, is it possible to change the "Default" name for the settings file without having to create an additional settings file? For example, instead of using:

Properties.Settings.Default.Setting1

I want to use:

Properties.Settings.Group1.Setting1 and Properties.Settings.Group2.Setting2

Answer 1

Remember that Settings is a partial class. You can write a partial class Settings with your own properties. In my opinion, this is exactly why it is a partial class.

I wouldn't recommend changing the default Default property. You can, however write the following:

public partial class Settings {

   // provide custom Groups, etc.
   public void Group1 {
      // some specific collection or object
      return Group1.Settings
   }

   public void Group2 {
      // some specific collection or object
      return Group2.Settings
   }
}

...where Group1 and Group2 represent custom classes. Each Group object can have their own methods for saving data, settings, configurations, etc.

Answer 2

When you update your setting, add this code to persist

Properties.Settings.OtherName.Setting1 = ...;
Properties.Settings.OtherName.Save();
