Question on AppKeys.dat and Connections.dat

Ross L Rooker, Sr.(1) — Mon, 03 Mar 2014 14:09:04 GMT

Based on the code below in Programs.cs:

Whereis the Connections.dat being stored and loaded from?

Windows 7: c:\Documents and Settings\AllUsers\Application Data\MicroFour\ConnectionData ?

Windows 8: c:\ProgramData\Microfour\Connections?

Whereis the AppKeys.dat being stored and loaded from?

Windows 7: c:\Documentsand Settings\All Users\Application Data\MicroFour\ConnectionData ?

Windows 8: c:\ProgramData\Microfour\Connections?

The above is ONLY if the data connections setting for a user isNOT pointing to a Shared Settings File. Is the correct?

PROGRAMS.cs

private static void SetDataSources()

{

//-- Set the information specific to this applicationand the data sources

// Theapplication key:

ConnectionManager.ApplicationKey = "CMT";

ConnectionManager.ApplicationDefaultTitle = "CMT Development Connection";

ConnectionManager.ApplicationDefaultDescription= "This application connection is used byCMT";

//-- Set the required data source information so thatthe ConnectionManager can gather it

// SQL Connection

ConnectionManager.AddRequiredDataSourceItem("", "SQLConnection",

DataSourceTypeOptions.SqlServer, "LOGICMT", "Thisconnection is used by CMT.");

ConnectionManager.AddRequiredDataSourceItem("CMT_RBS", "SQLConnection",

DataSourceTypeOptions.SqlServer,"LOGICMT_RBS", "This connection is used by CMT RBS.");

//-- Make the call to SetConnections which willgather the connection information, show the connection wizard

// if needed and set the DataSourcescollection on the DataLayer class.

ConnectionManager.SetConnections();

SecurityBasics.SecurityDataSourceKey = "CMT_RBS";

}
