ConfigurationSection and ConfigurationProperty validation

Question

Hi.

I created a CustomSection class by extending the ConfigurationSection. I read quite a few articles on the subject and they all sugest the same approach, but it doesn't work for me, and I dont have a clue what am I doing wrong. So any idea or help will be appreciated. Below is a simplified code:

 namespace ConfigElementTest
{
    public static class Globals
    {
        public static MySection Settings;

        public static void Load()
        {
            try
            {
                Settings = ConfigurationManager.OpenExeConfiguration(ConfigurationUserLevel.None).GetSection("mySection") as MySection;
            }
            catch (Exception ex)
            {

            }
        }
    }

    public class MySection : ConfigurationSection
    {
        public MySection()
        {

        }

        [ConfigurationProperty("name"), StringValidator(MaxLength = 10, MinLength = 3)]
        public string Name
        {
            get{return (string) base["name"];}
            set { base["name"] = value; }
        }
    }
}

And below is my app.config file

 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<configuration>
  <configSections>
    <section name="mySection" type="ConfigElementTest.MySection, ConfigElementTest" />
  </configSections>
  <mySection name="Some Name" />
</configuration>

When I call the Globals.Load() method an exception is thrown saying that the name has to be at least 3 characters long. If I remove the validator, everything works fine and if i call Globals.Settings.Name I get the right value - "Some Name" - as specified in app. config

Thanks in advance,
Uros
