Problem With Embedded Resources Inside A user Control
-
HI all! When designing a control, i embedded some pictures into the project. But when i try to access them i get no joy! the thing is the code i use works fine on just a standard project, but when i try it in the control, no stream is returned! The namespace im using is correct, and ive even tried putting the resourses in both the usercontrol project and the test project! Heres the code i use for standard projects:
Public Function GetEmbeddedImage(ByVal AppForm As Object, ByVal strImageName As String) As Bitmap Dim Exec_Assem As [Assembly] = AppForm.GetType.Assembly.GetEntryAssembly Dim myNameSpace As String = Exec_Assem.GetName.Name.ToString Dim PicStream As Stream Dim BMP As Bitmap PicStream = Exec_Assem.GetManifestResourceStream(myNameSpace + "." + strImageName) BMP = New Bitmap(PicStream) GetEmbeddedImage = BMP.Clone() BMP.Dispose() PicStream.Close() End Function:((:((:confused: the only differnce in code i use when calling from the usercontrol is : GetEntryAssembly Instead of which i use GetExecuting Assembly as this returns the user control assembly instead of the test project assembly. Thanks for your help!
