    copied!<p>I've this Class Library, as a result of a refactor action. I added an App.config file and added something like this:</p> <pre><code>&lt;configuration&gt; &lt;connectionStrings&gt; &lt;add name="MyDatabase" connectionString="Data Source=server;Initial Catalog=database;User ID=userid;Password=password" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" /&gt; &lt;/connectionStrings&gt; &lt;/configuration&gt; </code></pre> <p>But when I run the application, debugging learns me this is totally ignored. The immediate window tells me: </p> <pre><code>ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings[0] {data source=.\SQLEXPRESS;Integrated Security=SSPI;AttachDBFilename=|DataDirectory|aspnetdb.mdf;User Instance=true} base {System.Configuration.ConfigurationElement}: {data source=.\SQLEXPRESS;Integrated Security=SSPI;AttachDBFilename=|DataDirectory|aspnetdb.mdf;User Instance=true} ConnectionString: "data source=.\\SQLEXPRESS;Integrated Security=SSPI;AttachDBFilename=|DataDirectory|aspnetdb.mdf;User Instance=true" Key: "LocalSqlServer" Name: "LocalSqlServer" Properties: {System.Configuration.ConfigurationPropertyCollection} ProviderName: "System.Data.SqlClient" </code></pre> <p>I've checked generated config file in the bin directory and its contents are identical to the App.config.</p> <p>I try to read the App.config using: </p> <pre><code>ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings[Constants.Connections.DevConnection].ConnectionString </code></pre> <p>Nothing out of the ordinary I'd say, but what is going wrong? </p>
