Following is the code located in the /App_Code/ConfigSection.cs file

      [ConfigurationProperty("defaultConnectionStringName ",
         DefaultValue = "LocalSqlServer")]
      public string DefaultConnectionStringName
      {
         get { return (string)base["defaultConnectionStringName"]; }
         set { base["connectionStdefaultConnectionStringNameringNa me"] = value; }
      }

In this code
the get method is using the ID defaultConnectionStringName
but
the set method is using the Id connectionStdefaultConnectionStringNameringName

I am not understanding why this sets the value in some variable and calls from other variable.

hi there,

it's actually a typo and should read:

      [ConfigurationProperty("defaultConnectionStringName ",
         DefaultValue = "LocalSqlServer")]
      public string DefaultConnectionStringName
      {
         get { return (string)base["defaultConnectionStringName"]; }
         set { base["defaultConnectionStringName"] = value; }
      }

the issue would only come to light, if you wanted to override the default entry as detailed in the web.config file.

to be honest, i'd never noticed this error before :)

Yes, that is a typo error. I believe this typo actually appears twice in the chapter, so be on the lookout for it.
