Can anyone suggest how I could programatically switch debug and live connection strings?
I’ve seen other people have passed an EntityConnection to the constructor from the controller like this :
private XYZDatabase db = new XYZDatabase(ConfigurationManager.
ConnectionStrings["XYZDatabase-TEST"].ConnectionString);
but it still requires manually changing it? is there a way to use
System.Net.Dns.GetHostName() or similar
to switch it automatically?
Thanks
