Answer 1

Since it's a web application you want to change I'd go with the WebConfigurationManager.

If the configuration value you are about to change is in a separate section you need to get that section first:

var myConfiguration = (Configuration)WebConfigurationManager.OpenWebConfiguration("~");
var section = (MySectionTypeHere)myConfiguration.GetSection("system.web/mySectionName");
//Change your settings here
myConfiguration.Save();

Keep in mind that the web application will be restarted each time you change the web.config.

An article explaining it more in detail is available here .

您可以使用驻留在system.configuration中的Configuration类。

string configLocation = Path.GetDirectoryName(System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().Location);
string configPath = Path.Combine(configLocation, "yourAppName");
Configuration configFile = ConfigurationManager.OpenExeConfiguration(configPath); configFile.AppSettings.Settings["TheSettingYouWantToChange"].Value = "NewValue"; configFile.Save(ConfigurationSaveMode.Modified);
