Question

Marked a javascript file as ‘Embedded resource’
Added WebResource attribute to my AssemblyInfo class

Now i’m trying to output the embedded javascript to my master page. All I’m getting is a ‘Web Resource not found’ from the web resource url.

Project Assembly Name:

CompanyProduct 

Project Default Namespace:

Company.Product.Web 

Javascript file located:
Library/navigation.js

AssemblyInfo:

[assembly: WebResource('CompanyProduct.Library.navigation.js', 'text/javascript')] 

Code in master page:

Page.ClientScript.RegisterClientScriptInclude('NavigationScript', Page.ClientScript.GetWebResourceUrl(this.GetType(), 'CompanyProduct.Library.navigation.js')); 

Server Error in ‘/’ Application.

The resource cannot be found.

Description: HTTP 404. The resource you are looking for (or one of its dependencies) could have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable.  Please review the following URL and make sure that it is spelled correctly.

Requested URL: /WebResource.axd
Version Information: Microsoft .NET Framework Version:2.0.50727.1433; ASP.NET Version:2.0.50727.1433

Answer 1

Instead of this.GetType(), get a type from the assembly that contains the resource.. ie:

typeof(Company.Product.Web.Library.Class1) 

Does that work?
