This implementation is pretty usefull and for Jack as Fernando said, you need to set "Copy allways" in the Copy output directory property for that file and also you need to set Build Action as "Content".

Thank you. This was helpful. I made a mistake by placing comments in the app.config file. The parsing logic cound not handle this. Once I removed my comments the logic worked great.

Just a quick note to say thanks for this... I was about to implement something similar in my lunch break, but this is pre-written and will do the job I have in mind...

As others have said, the lack of Configuration on CF is a big oversight on MS's part. I've only worked with CF for a few months, and I have been amazed how limited it is in terms of memory, and missing "really basic bits" - like TryParse methods on various types etc. Yes, ok, you can easily reimplement a lot of bits yourself, but you SHOULDN'T HAVE TO...

And the function that saves the settings in vb...

Shared Sub Save()

Dim configFile As String = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly.GetName.CodeBase & ".config"

If Not File.Exists(configFile) Then

Throw New FileNotFoundException(String.Format("Application configuration file '{0}' not found.", configFile))

End If

Dim xmlDocument As New XmlDocument

xmlDocument.Load(configFile)

Dim nodeList As XmlNodeList = xmlDocument.GetElementsByTagName("appSettings")

For i As Integer = 0 To Settings.Count - 1

Dim sKey As String = Settings.GetKey(i)

Dim sValue As String = Settings.Get(i)

Dim bFound As Boolean = False

Dim node As XmlNode

For Each node In nodeList

Dim key As XmlNode

For Each key In node.ChildNodes

If key.Attributes.ItemOf("key").Value = sKey Then

key.Attributes.ItemOf("value").Value = sValue

bFound = True

Exit For

End If

If bFound Then Exit For

If Not bFound Then

Dim elem As XmlElement

Dim attr As XmlAttribute

'main node

elem = xmlDocument.CreateElement("add")

attr = xmlDocument.CreateAttribute("key")

attr.Value = sKey

elem.Attributes.Append(attr)

attr = xmlDocument.CreateAttribute("value")

attr.Value = sValue

elem.Attributes.Append(attr)

xmlDocument.SelectSingleNode("//appSettings").AppendChild(elem)

End If

xmlDocument.Save(configFile)

End Sub

Err... Is it nmloarly provided in any other performance comparison? Is there a single performance score in our tests we can use? What should be done with differently priced editions of each product?In short, price / performance is actually a very subjective number. IMO, even this question is more meaningful: let's say you get 30% better performance for X$ (fixed amount of money) for your Windows Azure application requiring you to pay C$ / month in average. How much time would it take to return the initial investment of X$?
