Observações

As definições de configuração são armazenadas numa hierarquia de ficheiros de configuração. A Configuration instância de classe representa a vista fundida das definições de configuração de todos os ficheiros de configuração que se aplicam a uma entidade física específica, como um computador, ou a uma entidade lógica, como uma aplicação ou um site web. A entidade lógica pode existir no computador local ou num servidor remoto. Para informações sobre ficheiros de configuração, consulte Configuring Apps e ASP.NET Configuration Files.

Quando não existe ficheiro de configuração para uma entidade especificada, o Configuration objeto representa as definições de configuração padrão definidas pelo ficheiro Machine.config.

Pode obter um Configuration objeto usando as seguintes classes:

• A ConfigurationManager classe, se a sua entidade for uma aplicação cliente.

• A WebConfigurationManager classe, se a sua entidade for uma aplicação Web.

Os nomes dos métodos que devolvem um Configuration objeto começam por "Open".

Também podes gerar um ficheiro de configuração que represente as definições de configuração num Configuration objeto. Para fazer isso, use um dos seguintes métodos:

• Chame o Save método para criar um novo ficheiro de configuração.

• Chame o SaveAs método para gerar um novo ficheiro de configuração noutro local.

Os nomes dos métodos que criam ficheiros de configuração começam por "Save".

Notas para Herdeiros

A Configuration classe fornece acesso programático para editar ficheiros de configuração. Utiliza-se um dos métodos "Open" fornecidos pela WebConfigurationManager classe para aplicações Web ou pela ConfigurationManager classe para aplicações cliente. Estes métodos devolvem um Configuration objeto, que por sua vez fornece os métodos e propriedades que gerem os ficheiros de configuração subjacentes. Pode aceder a estes ficheiros para ler ou escrever informações de configuração.

Usas o GetSection(String) método ou o GetSectionGroup(String) método para ler a informação de configuração. Note que o utilizador ou processo que lê deve ter as seguintes permissões:

• Permissão de leitura no ficheiro de configuração ao nível atual da hierarquia de configuração.

• Permissões de leitura em todos os ficheiros de configuração pais.

Se a sua aplicação precisar de acesso apenas de leitura à sua própria configuração, recomenda-se que utilize as GetSection sobrecargas de métodos para aplicações Web. Para a aplicação cliente, use o GetSection(String) método.

Estes métodos fornecem acesso aos valores de configuração em cache para a aplicação atual, que tem melhor desempenho do que a Configuration classe.

Nota: Se usar um método estático GetSection que recebe um parâmetro de caminho, o parâmetro de caminho deve referir-se à aplicação onde o código está a correr, caso contrário o parâmetro é ignorado e a informação de configuração da aplicação atualmente em execução é devolvida.

Utiliza-se um dos Save métodos para escrever informação de configuração. Note que o utilizador ou processo que escreve deve ter as seguintes permissões:

• Permissão de escrita no ficheiro de configuração e diretório ao nível atual da hierarquia de configuração.

• Permissões de leitura em todos os ficheiros de configuração.
