Doesn't work with new csproj format about configurationsectiondesigner HOT 9 OPEN

I never tried it in a brand new project. I will take a look.

I created a new WebForms project in latest Visual Studio 2019 and could not reproduce this problem. Some more info would be helpful.

• What type of project (ClassLibrary, AspNetCore, etc)?
• .NET framework version.
• Visual Studio version.

-Thanks

Thanks for sharing. I actually use the new config model for a few of my new projects as well.
The primary purpose of this tool was to be able to visualize the configuration hierarchy and have a nice UI to help with managing types. I think that this could also apply to the new AspNetCore config style.
We just need to add this support to ConfigurationSectionDesigner. This is likely not a simple task, so I am hoping that other developers might assist. My time is limited at the moment.

It doesn't matter whitch version of VS and type of project. By default VS generates old format for all framework version. Only for .net standard and core it generates new version.

Generate new ClassLibrary and replace csproj content with this:

<Project Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk"> <PropertyGroup> <TargetFramework>net472</TargetFramework> </PropertyGroup> </Project>

@hybridview did you had a time to look at this? This is keeping me in work from migrating whole test framework to new project.

My apologies. It's been a hectic summer and I somehow missed these requests.
I'll take another look.

I did as gakus suggested. Created new ClassLibrary (For netstandard to ensure new project format). I did this in the latest build of Visual Studio 2019. I then replaced project content with net472 as indicated. Next, I added a new CSD file and created a simple Configuration section. I added a single property. The CSD files generate with no issue for me. I wonder if it has something to do with other projects in your solution. If you have time, could you please try to reproduce the issue with a new empty solution, zip it, and share so I can reproduce on my machine? Many thanks.

Here is my solution folder that worked successfully for me. If it fails on your machine, then that really helps narrow the problem down for me.
