Application.GetResourceStream Method (Uri)

Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.

Returns a resource file from a location in the application package.

Namespace:  System.Windows
Assembly:  System.Windows (in System.Windows.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Shared Function GetResourceStream ( _
    uriResource As Uri _
) As StreamResourceInfo
public static StreamResourceInfo GetResourceStream(
    Uri uriResource
)

Parameters

  • uriResource
    Type: System.Uri
    A relative URI that identifies the resource file to be loaded. The URI is relative to the application package and does not need a leading forward slash.

Return Value

Type: System.Windows.Resources.StreamResourceInfo
A StreamResourceInfo that contains the stream for the desired resource file.

Exceptions

Exception Condition
ArgumentException

The application class is not initialized.

-or-

uriResource is an absolute URI.

ArgumentNullException

uriResource is nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).

Remarks

The GetResourceStream method allows you to load an arbitrary resource file from one of the following locations:

  • Embedded in the application assembly in the application package.

  • Embedded in a library assembly that is included in the application package.

  • Included in the application package.

Examples

The following code shows how to use GetResourceStream to load an image resource file from these three locations.
