I am creating solution and inside I have three projects:

  1. A WCF Service Library Project

  2. A DataAccess Project (Class Library)

  3. A Web site for hosting WCF service

The implementation of the service is on the project # 1, but in order to access the DataBase I use a second project that implements the data access using a class library project.

That problem is in order to get data access I need to configure a connection string, but that connection string must be configurable in a production environment, I meant in production I am going to deploy the site, which is a very simple project that contains only a reference WCF Service Library Project then a guy from database department will configure the connection string.

In development I have an app.config on the data access project but when I do the release that app.config is embedded on the dll.

Any ideas how can we achieve our purpose
