Question

i am having a problem in adding the image files to project namespace. I’m trying to do this like……..

Step 1:Going to add existing item menu.

Step 2:Then browsing to the file that i want to add and simply adding it.

But when I’m trying to read this file by this method——-

Assembly myAssembly = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly();
Stream myStream = myAssembly
        .GetManifestResourceStream("namespace.filename.fileExtension");
img = new Bitmap(myStream);

I get null in myStream. I think there is some other way to add files to the namespace of the project because previously I have added some files and the same method is working for those files.

Anybody knowing the answer please help.

Rregards,
Madhup

Answer 1

Have you marked those files to be an embedded resource (solution explorer)? Also – try it without the extension. You can use GetManifestResourceNames to check what is available.
