Question

Given that I have a file in path:

C:\Applications\General Utils\Assembly1\Assembly1\Bin\Debug\Assembly1.dll

and I am working in the following path:

C:\Applications\Under Development\App1\App1\

is there some easy way to find the dotted path route from the application to the assembly:

..\..\..\General Utils\Assembly1\Assembly1\Bin\Debug\Assembly1.dll

Answer 1

System.Uri uri1 = new Uri(@"C:\Applications\General Utils\Assembly1\Assembly1\Bin\Debug\Assembly1.dll");
System.Uri uri2 = new Uri(@"C:\Applications\Under Development\App1\App1\"); 
Uri relativeUri = uri2.MakeRelativeUri(uri1);
Console.WriteLine(relativeUri.ToString());

Should do the trick
