Question

I’m trying to understand how to make a get a file from my project
I’m using visual studio 2010, and I have a folder in my wpf project that is called: Images

How can I get an image from that folder, I’am trying:

return @"/Images/"+ name+".jpg";

the folder it self is in : C:\Users\Boaz-Pc\Documents\Visual Studio 2010\Projects\FinalSadna\FinalSadna\Images

But it doesnt work for me. Any ideas?

Answer 1

you can look at something like this

string imageName = name + ".jpg";
var path = Path.Combine(GetApplicationFolder(), "/Images/" + imageName);

if you want to find it via the Assembly you could use the following as well

var path = Path.GetDirectoryName(Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().Location);
