Read file attribute from appsettings from web.config

Question

In my web.config I have the following

<appSettings file="C:\\Config\\myproj\\Appsettings.Config">

file attribute doesn't come under NameValueCollection, so how can I read the file attribute? I want to read this attribute and then perform some operation.

Answer 1

This should give you the file path of the AppSettings file attribute:

ConfigurationManager.OpenExeConfiguration(ConfigurationUserLevel.None)
                    .AppSettings
                    .File;
