.net cf 1 Extract Icon

[Thorsten Held]

Hello, I want to extract an Icon from an Exe. I found this code:

http://blog.opennetcf.com/ayakhnin/PermaLink,guid,bf513c4a-f175-4fd0-8334-70dcade80673.aspx
But it seems that it's for .NET CF 2.0, because .NET CF 1 doesn't has
Icon.FromHandle.

Is there a working .NET CF 1 alternative?

Thanks a lot

Thorsten

This is assuming the icon is in the current executing assembly and you're
dealing with managed code only:

Stream stream =
Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetManifestResourceStream("namespacetoicon.myicon.ico");
Icon icon = new Icon(stream);

If the exe in not in the callers context (and is managed) use the
Assembly.LoadFrom method.

I think Alex's post is loading an icon from any executable (native or
managed).
