Hi,

I have following requirements to achieve: I have some images andI am adding them as a resource to a dll. This dll is then to beused for getting those images by the other clients.
Now to do so first I generated a .resx file which includes allthese images in the xml form. Then I convernted .resx to.resource file using resgen.exe. After this I used al.exe togenerate .resource.dll from .resource file using neutralculture. Once done, I implemented a .cs file which has all thosepublic getter methods for interface for the clients. I thencompiled it and attached the .resource.dll file I earlier made.
Now when I am using this dll in some client, I get a runtimeerror "An unhandled exception of type'System.IO.FileNotFoundException' occurred in Unknown Module."
I couldn't figure out whats wrong with it. Can some one help meout?

Thanks
Bilal

Hi,

Ensure you follow all naming and location conventions for satellite
assemblies. These should be outlined in MSDN. Start with the following
articles (mind the line wraps):

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/d...ide/html/cpconcreatingsatelliteassemblies.asp

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/d...-us/cpguide/html/cpconlocalizingresources.asp

Also bear in mind that culture-neutral resources should remain in the main
assembly as they are expected to be there by the resource fallback process.
You can also use the Fusion Log Viewer (fuslogvw.exe) tool to determine
which assembly cannot be located and which locations have been actually
probed.
