I would like to serialize my object with many values as string(xml) into user settings. Is there a limit on how large a “string” user setting can be in a .NET application?
I am extending ApplicationSettingsBase to save my settings.
There is no explicit limit imposed by the application settings code. The only limits are really those of the backing storage (typically the file system).
While that allows for a very large string to be used I would caution from going overboard here. Just because it’s possible doesn’t mean it should be done 🙂
