So I'm trying to use a .Net Assembly in my web services project. This assembly requires lots of settings in App.config. But my web service doesn't have an App.config, it has a web.config. It seems that it uses sections that an app.config would have that don't even exist for web projects. Is there any way I can make this assembly work? (make it read another config file maybe?)

A:
You should be able to simply use the same configuration sections in the web.config file that exist in the app.config and it would work.
The way the configuration subsystem works means that it does not matter.

From what I can tell that's not the case. web.config doesn't really have appSettings, so if the dll is dependent on those it can't read them using the standard ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings.

@flxkid - Have you tried? I have definitely used `appSettings` sections in `web.config` before without any problems.
