Hi,
How to i update a TraceSwitch from app.config in runtime - without
restarting the application.
I use dotNet 3.5.
I know how to refresh the section in memory, but i dont know how to read the
properties from the updated section.
This is what i have:
System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.RefreshSection("system.diagnostics");
object section =
System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.GetSection("system.diagnostics");
TraceSwitch fileTraceLevel = new TraceSwitch("FileTraceListenerSwitch",
"explanation...");
or
fileTraeLevel.Level = (TraceLevel)section.??? !!
How do i get the level information from the section ??
Thank you in advance.
BR

Hi Colbert,
Thank you for your comment.
But, if you changed the level in a app.config, belonging to a running
application, the application does not see the change until the app is
restarted.
Isn't that right ??

Hello Peter,
The new app.Config file is loaded after the RefreshSection calling. It is
just the Trace data does not update. We can call Trace.Refresh to update it.
static void Main(string[] args)
{
TraceSwitch appSwitch = new TraceSwitch("mySwitch", "Switch in
config file");
Console.WriteLine("Trace switch {0} configured as {1}",
appSwitch.DisplayName, appSwitch.Level.ToString());
System.Diagnostics.Debugger.Break();
System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.RefreshSection("system.diagnostics
");
System.Diagnostics.Trace.Refresh();
Console.WriteLine("Trace switch {0} configured as
{1}",appSwitch.DisplayName, appSwitch.Level.ToString());
}
Please note if you are debugging the codes, the config to modify is
***.vshost.exe.config.
Please give it a try and let me know it works for you!
Best regards,
Ji Zhou

Hi Colbert,
I have tried what you suggested and it works.
I think i have missed the refresh method on Trace.
Why is it that "appSettings" is available after RefreshSection() and trace
isn't ??
