Примеры

В следующем примере показано, как использовать ConfigurationElementCollection.

Первый пример состоит из трех классов: UrlsSectionUrlsCollection и UrlConfigElement. Класс UrlsSection используется для ConfigurationCollectionAttribute определения настраиваемого раздела конфигурации. Этот раздел содержит коллекцию URL-адресов (определяется классом) элементов URL-адресов (определяется UrlsCollection классом UrlConfigElement ).

При запуске консольного приложения создается экземпляр UrlsSection класса, а в файле конфигурации приложения создаются следующие элементы конфигурации:

<configuration>
    <configSections>
        <section name="MyUrls" type="UrlsSection,
          ConfigurationElementCollection, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null" />
    </configSections>
    <MyUrls>
        <urls>
           <add name="Contoso" url="http://www.contoso.com" port="4040" />
        </urls>
    </MyUrls>
</configuration

Комментарии

Представляет ConfigurationElementCollection коллекцию элементов в файле конфигурации.

Вы используете ConfigurationElementCollection для работы с коллекцией ConfigurationElement объектов. Реализуйте этот класс для добавления коллекций пользовательских ConfigurationElement элементов в объект ConfigurationSection.

Примечания для тех, кто реализует этот метод

Для создания пользовательского элемента конфигурации можно использовать программную или декларативную (атрибутную) модель кодирования.

Программная модель требует, чтобы для каждого атрибута элемента вы создали свойство, чтобы получить и задать его значение, и добавить его во внутренний контейнер свойств базового ConfigurationElement класса.

Декларативная модель, также называемая моделью с атрибутами, позволяет определить атрибут элемента с помощью свойства и настроить его с помощью атрибутов. Эти атрибуты указывают системе конфигурации ASP.NET о типах свойств и их значениях по умолчанию. ASP.NET может использовать отражение для получения этих сведений, а затем создать объекты свойств элемента и выполнить требуемую инициализацию.
