If your XML configuration files will be in the same location on your Development, UAT and PROD servers, is there any merit to making your configurations indirect
I am modifying the connection string with the XML. My strategy is to set up an XML configuration for each database that we have. The Dev XML config will point to Development connection, UAT to UAT etc..
My thought is that by using the direct configuration it will eliminate the need for environment variables and also allow me to add configs without having to reboot the servers, which you would need to do in order to get server to recongize the EV.
Thanks
