Do SQL Server 2005/CLR Triggers support .config Files?

Does anyone know if it's possible to use the standard .config file within a CLR Trigger to read properties via the System.Configuration namespace

I guess it's not possible because the CLR Trigger needs to be compiled as an assembly which is hosted by SQL Server

Thanks

Hi,

CLR stuff in SQL Server does not work like those know from "normal" applications. Although you can use the Configuration class to load a configuration somewhere stored on disk, you have to keep in mind, that every namespace / class that you use with are not approved as safe will lower down your security, because you have to mark them as unsafe / external access.

Perhaps any other posters has some other experiences about that.

I think the “CLR Triggers for SQL Server 2005” article on
http://aspalliance.com/1273_CLR_Triggers_for_SQL_Server_2005
may be helpful in this discussion.

This popular white paper is written by a software engineer from our organization Mindfire Solutions (http://www.mindfiresolutions.com).

I hope you find it useful!
