Hi again,
Yes setting the build action to embedded resource does make a difference.
With the source file structure of
Resources (directory)
hidden (directory)
file1.txt
file2.txt
TfDll.dll
file3.txt
file4.txt
The following code
private void ShowResources2() {
Assembly a = Assembly.GetEntryAssembly();
foreach (String s in a.GetManifestResourceNames()) {
Console.WriteLine("NAME {0}", s);
if (s.Contains("TfDll.dll")) {
using (Stream rs = a.GetManifestResourceStream(s)) {
using (FileStream fs = File.Create("TfDll2.dll")) {
Byte[] buff = new Byte[8192];
Int32 read;
while ((read = rs.Read(buff, 0, buff.Length)) > 0) {
fs.Write(buff, 0, read);
}
}
}
}
}
}
outputs
NAME TfSync.MainForm.resources
NAME TfSync.Properties.Resources.resources
NAME TfSync.Resources.file3.txt
NAME TfSync.Resources.file4.txt
NAME TfSync.Resources.hidden.file1.txt
NAME TfSync.Resources.hidden.file2.txt
NAME TfSync.Resources.hidden.TfDll.dll
where TfSync and MainForm are the project's namespace and form. I also recreate an identical copy of TfDll.dll as TfDll2.dll.
Alan.

Thanks, Alan.
The reason my first attempt didn't work was because I had the Build Action of my resource files set to Resource and not Embedded Resource (an oversight on my part). When I made that change, The following code worked for me:
InstallationFiles = new List<string>();
Assembly a = Assembly.GetEntryAssembly();
foreach (String s in a.GetManifestResourceNames())
{
if (s.StartsWith("PHDInstallation.Resources."))
{
string fileName = s.Replace("PHDInstallation.Resources.", "");
InstallationFiles.Add(fileName);
}
}

Been there, done that. The array I got back had one entry in it: the path of my executable.

that does not fit the name of the method, nor my earlier experience with it.
I suggest you show actual code and give a detailed problem description.

Okay, my memory failed me slightly. It must have been one of my other experiments that returned the name of my executable. However, I did try the one you suggested and it didn't return anything obviously useful either. It returned the following two strings:
PhdBetaInstall.g.resources
PHDInstallation.Properties.Resources.resources
What am I supposed to do with those? I want strings returned like this:
Resources/InterestingFile1.dll
Resources/InterestingFile2.dll
etc. etc. To get those, I'd have two DLL's embedded with the specified names. Now maybe you can tell me what I'm supposed to do with the two strings that GetManifestResourceNames() did return that would produce what I want. But the MSDN reference you provided wasn't very helpful and I'd found it and tried it before starting this thread.
The code that produced the two strings from GetManifestResourceNames() is the following:
Assembly assembly = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly();
string[] resourceNames = assembly.GetManifestResourceNames();

code such as:
Module module=type.Module;
Assembly assembly=module.Assembly;
log("Embedded resources for assembly "+assembly.ToString());
string[] sa=assembly.GetManifestResourceNames();
foreach (string s in sa) log(" "+s);
shows a list of embedded resources, i.e. data structures that reside inside an EXE or DLL (in this case the one holding the definition for Type type). The result could be:
Explorer.resources.winLP.jpg
Explorer.resources.LPExplorer.ico
Such information can be used like so to instantiate an object:
Bitmap bitmap=new Bitmap(type, resourceName);
Icon icon=new Icon(type, resourceName);
One way of getting such resources into your EXE/DLL file is by adding image/icon/whatever files to your solution, then setting their "Build Action" property to "Embedded Resource".
Your solution might contain other files as well, those would not become resources and not be listed by GetManifestResourceNames(). EXE and DLL files themselves are not considered resources. Also, you can add any file you want to a solution, even ones not needed for a successful build; and the resulting EXE/DLL typically does not know at all what files were used to get built.

Just a quick reply to this. I'll get back to a full response to your post later. I just want to note that it is precisely EXE and DLL files that I'm adding to my Resources folder that I want to export, because I'm "rolling my own" installation program, and the installation program has all the installation files of the application being installed embedded as resources so that I can distribute a single executable file that exports all the DLL and EXE files to the installation folder of the application being installed. So I'm not sure how this relates to this statement of yours. Perhaps you can elaborate:

I use the following code :
mem.udt_PhonebyMemIDandContactType(memID, null, Txt_MobileNum.Text, null, 4, null);
the value of Txt_MobileNum.Text is unreachable because of the error "Cannot evaluate expression because a thread is stopped at a point where garbage collection is impossible, possibly because the code is optimized."
what is it for? what should i do?!!

you could Google your error message, which yields many including this one[^], it is a slow starter however the end looks interesting.

Hi Guys,
we've been running into some kind of strange trouble recnetly and not luck till now.
Ther error is coming only in one dev. machine out of 3. all have the same version of softwares and using TFS for version control.
For unit testing our modules containg NServiceBus code, we are using NServiceBus unit testing framework.
the code is like
<br />
[TestMethod]<br />
public void SomeMethod(Assembly asm)<br />
{<br />
...<br />
NServiceBus.Testing.Test.Initialize(asm);
...<br />
}<br />
the error message
Test method Decos.Kcs.UnitTests.Handlers.CaseHandlers.Dummy.AllCaseHandlerTest.TestSearchCaseHandler threw exception: System.BadImageFormatException: Could not load file or assembly 'file:///C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\IDE\devenv.exe' or one of its dependencies. The module was expected to contain an assembly manifest..

The output window contents on the error machine is
The Test.Initialize() methos fails on that specific machine.
While on other machine, it just does not look for devenv.exe.
It just continues with loading NServiceBus.Host and other dlls.
We have cross checked the referneces of the projects and everything seems to be fine.
any help is appreciated.
Thanks

Suppose i am writing code in .net e.g
int i=10
then .net show me red line under the code where error occurs.we know the i have not apply semicolon at the end of syntax(int i=10;)
who handles these error while writing the source code???.

I am trying to create a bitmap after using capCreateCaptureWindow and capPreview. The video appears in the picture box but I can't seem to save the bitmap using capFileSaveDIB (which returns true after calling it - file does not appear in the directory).
I can successfully save the image to the clipboard but was not successfull in saving the contents to a bitmap.
I am using visual c++ 2008 express edition, and therefore have no MFC library.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

In my webpage iam having the text '2nd number of passcode' where this number is changing dynamically each time when the page loads. And based on this number we need to select the value from the combo box (having 0 to 9). Is there any way that we can get the number in that label so that i can assign the number respective to the combo box. (both label number and combo box number value remains same)
Is this possible in visual studio 2010 coded ui automation testing?

Dear Sir
As i have read the your complete resume during surfing internet while searching a link between Vb6 and Matlab. Let me introduce, Myself teaching faculty at M. S. University of Baroda, to UG and PG students since last 13 years. The subjects are structural dynamics,theory of plates and shells,numerical methods and structural analysis.As, I am pursuing my Ph.D( Structural Engineering) in which i have my input file in Vb6 and the processor program that. I have developed in past in Matlab6.5 before 4 months, now it's somehow more difficult to convert the matlab program into Vb and work as single platform.
So, since last few days, I am in search of linking those two softwares,i.e., using vb6 can i run the all the function s of Matlab command line. I have read the matter in help file i.e., regarding development of COM file etc... but does'nt work that much.
See if you can help me in this line
thanking you

Hi all,
I am working on a feature where in we can allow/disallow changing system time to any user. We can run this application from an administrator's account and set if a particular user can change system time or not. Even the administrator (who itself is logged on) itself can allow/disallow himself changing time.
While googling I found that there is some, The system user right SeSystemtimePrivilege that controls the ability to set the system time. I could not find how to complete my feature via the privilege SeSystemtimePrivilege using C#.
Can somebody help me how to that using c# (or even C++). Even if there is some other way of implementing this feature, please let me know.
Thanks in Advance
Best Regards
Aseem

You have posted exactly the same question in C/C++/MFC forum (here[^]) and in System Admin forum (here[^]).
I know that sometimes it is hard to determine the best forum for a given question, but it is not a good idea to post the same question to multiple forums. Try to choose the most appropriate forum for your questions.
Please read the forum rules[^].
