When you have one app.config for your whole set of DTAP environments (develop/test/acceptance production), every once in a while you get this error:
ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified
For this particular setup, it means the replacement of parameters in the app.config with actual values from the DTAP went wrong (or was missing). For that we’ve some steps in both the PreBuildEvent and PostBuildEvent of the .csproj file:
del "$(ProjectDir)$(TargetFileName).config"
copy "$(ProjectDir)app.config" "$(ProjectDir)$(TargetFileName).config"
powershell -noprofile -file Replace-Parameter.ps1 -Path "$(TargetDir)$(TargetFileName).config"
The PreBuildEvent looks like it is not needed, but sometimes Visual Studio forgets to perform the copy action.
