C# Modify Connection String that exists inside a library
- by LnDCobra
I have a Class Library, which inside just has a DataSet (MySQL connector) and a Connector class.
I use this class in multiple projects to connect to the database, and I always had the password embedded in the connection string but now I need to be able to modify this string(for security purposes) so I can have the user connect using their own account.
How can I modify this connection string.
I have tried the following
Properties.Settings.Default.DataBaseConnectionString = "String";
But it seems that the connection string is readonly becase it doesn't appear to have a setter value.
I also tried the following with no luck
Properties.Settings.Default.DatabaseConnectionString.Insert(
Properties.Settings.Default.DatabaseConnectionConnectionString.Length - 1,
"Password=dbpassword;");
