mono/mcs/class/System/System.Configuration/ChangeLog

2006-03-11  Miguel de Icaza  <[email protected]>

	* ConfigurationSettings.cs (ChangeConfigurationSettings): Make
	internal to avoid warnings.  This routine is called from
	System.Web with MethodInfo.Invoke.

2006-02-01  Atsushi Enomoto  <[email protected]>

	* SettingElementCollection.cs : CollectionType is protected.

2006-01-16  Chris Toshok  <[email protected]>

	* ConfigurationSettings.cs (AppSettings): move back to a 1.x
	strategy in the 2.0 case.  That is, don't hardcode the reference
	to ConfigurationManager.AppSettings (yet).  Eventually we can move
	back to this code, once ConfigurationManager supports reading
	web.config for settings.

2006-01-03  Chris Toshok  <[email protected]>

	* ConfigurationSettings.cs (GetConfig): be nice to people using
	old 1.x style section handlers with the new 2.0 config stuff.  If
	we're about to return null or IgnoreSection, try to load it using
	the 1.x api.  If that works, return that object.

2006-01-02  Chris Toshok  <[email protected]>

	* LocalFileSettingsProvider.cs: use the PrebuiltSystem extern
	alias to make sure we use the right type for NameValueCollection.
	(Initialize): enable (under the CONFIGURATION_2_0 ifdef).

	* ConfigurationSettings.cs: use the PrebuiltSystem extern alias to
	make sure we use the right type for NameValueCollection.
	(AppSettings): provide an implementation for the NET_2_0 &&
	CONFIGURATION_2_0 case.
	(GetConfig): same.
	(ReadSectionGroup): allow a type attribute in the NET_2_0 &&
	CONFIGURATION_2_0 case.

	* AppSettingsReader.cs: use the PrebuiltSystem extern alias to
	make sure we use the right type for NameValueCollection.

2005-11-28  Chris Toshok  <[email protected]>

	* SettingValueElement.cs: wrap a few more things in
	CONFIGURATION_DEP.

2005-11-09  Chris Toshok  <[email protected]>

	* ConfigurationSettings.cs (AppSettings): remove the #if NET_2_0
	block breaks this.
	(ReadSectionGroup): allow the "type" atrribute so we don't break
	when reading a 2.0 config file using the 1.0 stuff.

2005-11-04  Chris Toshok  <[email protected]>

	* SettingsProvider.cs, SettingsPropertyValueCollection.cs,
	SettingValueElement.cs, SettingElement.cs,

	* SettingsPropertyWrongTypeException.cs: new exception.

2005-09-20  Chris Toshok  <[email protected]>

	* SettingsPropertyValue.cs
	(SettingsPropertyValue.set_PropertyValue): set needPropertyValue =
	false here so we don't pull in the default value in the getter.

	* SettingsProviderCollection.cs: new implementation.

	* SettingsPropertyValueCollection.cs
	(SettingsPropertyValueCollection..ctor): init items.
	(Add): add an internal method that takes a
	SettingsPropertyValueCollection.

2005-09-20  Chris Toshok  <[email protected]>

	* SettingsSavingEventHandler.cs: new delegate.
	
	* SettingChangingEvent{Handler,Args}.cs: new delegate and args

	and check that the exe file exists.
	Removed if XML_DEP, as there's one at the top of the file.

2004-11-18  Geoff Norton <[email protected]>

	* ProviderSettingsCollection.cs: Add XML_DEP because this inherits 
	ConfigurationElementCollection which has XML_DEP.  Fixes bootstrap
	
2004-11-18  Lluis Sanchez Gual <[email protected]>

	* ProviderSettings.cs, ProviderSettingsCollection.cs: Mostly implemented.

2004-05-17  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <[email protected]>

	* ConfigurationSettings.cs: don't ask me why, but the .cctor
	initialization of 'instance' field does no longer work.

2004-05-06  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <[email protected]>

	* ConfigXmlDocument.cs: removed method that was supposed to be internal.

	* ConfigurationSettings.cs: instead of calling the overload that doesn't
	exist in MS, use what we have when loading an external file.

2004-04-20  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <[email protected]>

	* ConfigXmlDocument.cs: fixed overloaded Load and added a new one that
	sets the file name.

	* ConfigurationSettings.cs: use the new Load in ConfigXmlDocument when

	George Kodinov [email protected]). Fixes bug #51643.

2003-12-02  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <[email protected]>

	* ConfigurationSettings.cs: handle allowdefinition and allowlocation,
	added locks, don't reopen the file for every new section to be read,
	but keep them as strings and build the section handlers with that.
	Also allow changing the configuration system (used from System.Web).

2003-11-17 Ben Maurer  <[email protected]>

	* ConfigurationSettings.cs: make the *Mark objects static
	because they need to be comparable across instances.
	(ReadSectionGroup): You can add an element to a group declared
	in the parent config files (MS.net's QuickStarts do this).

2003-11-06  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <[email protected]>

	* ConfigurationSettings.cs: don't handle null or non-existent file in
	the catch blocks.

2003-10-03  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <[email protected]>

	* ConfigurationSettings.cs: really make the cache work.

2003-10-03  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <[email protected]>

	* ConfigurationSettings.cs: pass the file name we're reading as the
	context.

2003-10-03  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <[email protected]>

	* ConfigurationSettings.cs: patch by Eric Lindvall ([email protected])
	that improves performance by not reading the file more than once.

2003-07-15  Andreas Nahr <[email protected]>

	* ConfigurationSettings.cs: Removed unused exception variable, fixes
	compiler warning

2003-06-16  Lluis Sanchez Gual <[email protected]>

	* ConfigurationSettings.cs: Avoid chicken-egg problem when reading
	machine.config. Cannot use an uri to read mechine.config because web
	request module handelrs are defined in machine.config.

2003-03-02  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <[email protected]>

	* AppSettingsReader.cs: fixed bug #38755.

2002-12-19  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <[email protected]>

	* ConfigXmlDocument.cs: don't jump over the first element.
	* ConfigurationSettings.cs: pass doc.DocumentElement instead of doc.

	This used to work until i tried to access one attribute of the first
	element and realized that the element was not the expected!
	This change does not affect the configuration handlers that only use
	ChildNodes property on the XmlNode they get as argument.

2002-12-15  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <[email protected]>

	* ConfigurationSettings.cs: removed type loading hack no longer needed.

2002-12-14  Jonathan Pryor <[email protected]>

	* ConfigurationSettings.cs: Allow configuration sections to be removed.

2002-11-04  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <[email protected]>

2002-10-31  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <[email protected]>

	* ConfigHelper.cs: NameValueCollection.Add is now fixed.

2002-10-14  Martin Baulig  <[email protected]>

	* ConfigurationSettings.cs (DefaultConfig.GetAppConfigPath):
	Append ".config" to the filename, not ".exe.config" since the
	filename already has a ".exe" suffix.

2002-10-14  Martin Baulig  <[email protected]>

	* ConfigurationSettings.cs (DefaultConfig.GetAppConfigPath): Use
	Assembly.Location, not Assembly.FullName to get its filename.

2002-10-10  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <[email protected]>

	* ConfigHelper.cs: workaround for a bug in NameValueCollection.
	* ConfigurationSettings.cs: load sections when the parent holds a
	handler for it. Now overriding appSettings values in the app config
	file works (first <remove..> and then <add...).

2002-10-09  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <[email protected]>

	* ConfigHelper.cs:
	* NameValueFileSectionHandler.cs: check that Attributes is not null.

2002-10-09  Miguel de Icaza  <[email protected]>

	* NameValueFileSectionHandler.cs: For now if a section is not
	present, return null.  Do not know what the real fix is.  Gonzalo
	will have to look at this, but the debugger was crashing as
	appSettings in the machine.config does not exist, but GetConfig
	returns a non-null value when looking it up when you do a
	GetDocumentForSection ("appSettings").

2002-10-09  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <[email protected]>

	* ConfigurationSettings.cs: use get_machine_config_path internal call.

2002-10-08  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <[email protected]>

	* ConfigXmlDocument.cs: move the reader for the section to the first
	element.
	
	* ConfigurationSettings.cs: fixed hierarchical search for a handler. 

2002-10-06  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <[email protected]>

	* ConfigurationSettings.cs: reimplemented. It is now able to deliver
	sections to their handlers for processing.

2002-10-03  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <[email protected]>

	* ConfigHelper.cs: New file. Contains some
	helper functions for getting key-value collections from the config file.
	
	* ConfigXmlDocument.cs: wrapper around xml elements to provide line
	number and file name info.
	* IConfigXmlNode.cs: used in ConfigXmlDocument and
	ConfigurationException.

	* ConfigurationException.cs: get file name and line
	number from the wrapped XmlNode. Display this info in Message.

	* NameValueFileSectionHandler.cs: new handler.
	* DictionarySectionHandler.cs:
	* NameValueSectionHandler.cs: modified to use the helper methods in
	ConfigHelper.

2002-10-02  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <[email protected]>

	* AppSettingsReader.cs: New file.
	* IConfigurationSystem.cs: New file.

	* IgnoreSectionHandler.cs:
	* NameValueSectionHandler.cs:
	* SingleTagSectionHandler.cs: little fixes.

2002-09-03  Martin Baulig  <[email protected]>

	* ConfigurationSettings.cs (ConfigurationSettings.GetConfig): Use the
	correct configuration filename, fixed the TODO.
	(GetSectionHanderType): Renamed to GetSectionHandlerType.

	* NameValueSectionHandler.cs (NameValueSectionHandler.Create): Allow
	whitespaces in the configuration file.

2002-01-31  Duncan Mak  <[email protected]>

	* ConfigurationException.cs: Rewrote most of the file and added
	serialization bits.

2002-01-06  Ravi Pratap  <[email protected]>

	* ConfigurationSettings.cs, IgnoreSectionHandler.cs : MonoTODO decoration

	* SingleTagSectionHandler.cs, DictionarySectionHandler.cs, 
	NameValueSectionHandler.cs : Ditto.

2001-08-28  Christopher Podurgiel <[email protected]>
	* IConfigurationSectionHandler.cs: Added reference to System.Xml.
	
	* SingleTagSectionHandler.cs: Added Implementation of Create() method.
	
	* NameValueSectionHandler.cs: Added Implementation of Create() method.
	
	* ConfigurationException.cs: Now returns proper message rather than "System Exception".

2001-08-26  Christopher Podurgiel <[email protected]>

	* ConfigurationSettings.cs: No longer references the
	NameValueSectionHandler directly.  Instead it uses
	System.Reflection to call the Create() method for the appropriate
	SectionHandler as defined in the .config file.
