Question

I want to load all filenames from a folder in my project to a string array.

But I am not able to. Already tried it with the DirectoryInfo, but I am not able to load the wanted Directory.

Just to be sure. I do not want to copy all files to the IsolatedStorage. I just want to get the filenames.

Could anybody please provide me a solution to do it.

Thanks so far!

WP7 application does not have any API to work with file system.

If you have files in project folder – you can mark them as Resources, and read them usin

Application.GetResourceStream(new Uri(fileName, UriKind.Relative));

---

If files are marked as Content – you can not get the list of them. You can use only hardcoded names.

If files marked as Embedded Resources you can list them by this code:

var list = Assembly.GetCallingAssembly().GetManifestResourceNames();
