Que. about embedded resources

[akshaycjoshi]

I have embedded on mdb file in my application and my application, during it's life creates some copies of it with different names.

Assembly.GetCal lingAssembly(). GetManifestReso urceStream("cal l_monitoring_st udio.Resources. gextension.mdb" ).

gextension stands for general extension, the same file will be copied as extension1,exte nsion2 ...

Now the above function returns a stream.
How would i create copies of it ?

Assembly.GetCallingAssembly().GetManifestResourceS tream("call_monitoring_studio.Resources.gextension .mdb")

is returning a nul value, though i can see it in IL disassembler.
I can see it in IL Disassembler

 
call_monitoring_studio.Resources.gextension .mdb
{
//offset
}

I have set the build action to embedded resource.

Any clues ?

I dont know where I am wrong.
Throughing exception Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
It's killing me !

see the screenshot now.
I am just MessageBoxing the names of resources.
See the screenshot below.

There is a resource class that should be used for handling embeded resources.
Did you add this MDB to the Resources section of the project, or just set it's build-action to embeded resource?

Just clicked add new item and selected the mdb file.
And set it's build-action to embeded resource.

Try adding it to the Resources section of the project, it auto generates code for accessing the resources.
It might give you an easier method for retrieving it

I had to change the name to "Call_monitorin g_studio.gexten sion.mdb"
It's working now.
Thanks anyways.
