When to use .NET Settings vs config <appsettings>?
- by jdk
Are there any recommendations on when to use Application settings (not per user settings) vs. .config file <appsettings>?
Update
Looking to understand some of the finer and important differences because they're both effectively key/value stores.
For example, I know modifying appsettings in web.config will recycle the web application.
Settings have been in .NET for a while now and I haven't bothered to look at them - maybe one is somewhat redundant, or using both at the same time doesn't make sense... that's the kind of detail I'm looking to understand and the reasons.
