If we can have more than one .config files, we can share one config file with other projects and put private configuration into another. Visual Studio 2008 will be confused?

If we can have more than one .config files, we can share one config file with other projects and put private configuration into another. Visual Studio 2008 will be confused?
Visual Studio 2010 has support for multiple .config files. It is one feature of new web application packaging and deployment system. We can create now separate web.config files for each configuration we have for application. But for 2008 there are no support for multi config files, you can workaround this by adding two config files and rename them in build time
Example:
private.config
public.config
on pre-msbuild event merge these two files
rename merged file, it should be web.config or app.config
Hope this helps…
