Hi

 

We have client applications and an application server side, in IIS. The aap.config of the clients and the server side seems to be fine.  I would like to know if we need to put something in the app.config files of the library projects, like business objects. I think the links toward the business projects (in the web project) is sufficient, am I right?

 

Thanks for your help

You need to think of this issue in terms of physical deployment of your application.

If you are hosting the application on IIS as a website, then you need a web.config on the web server for that website.

If you are hosting a middle-tier Application Server (as well) under IIS then you need a web.config for that website (as well).

If you are deploying your application to a desktop PC, then you need an app.config on that desktop PC.

There is no real relationship between config files and how many projects/DLLs you have in your solution.
