-- Develop custom configuration section handler

 

The previous article, A tutorial of how to use Microsoft CMAB, shows how to use XmlHashtableSectionHandler provided by CMAB to access application’s configuration file. The Hashtable section handler provides support for configuration sections based on the standard .Net Hashtable class. It’s simple and fast to implement the required function.

This article will show you how to develop custom configuration section handler based on Microsoft Configuration Management Application Block. To create a read/write custom section handler, you must create a class that implements the IconfigurationSectionHandlerWriter interface, which is defined in the Configuration Management Application Block and  extends IconfigurationSectionHandler. 

For example,

public class ProxySectionHandler : IConfigurationSectionHandler,

IconfigurationSectionHandlerWriter

 

I've built a sample solution in C# to demonstrate it. You can download it from the following URL.
