Remarks

fileName should not be the same as that of any other persistable module, standalone managed resource, or the standalone manifest file.

The managed resources in the file are assumed to be public.

The specified resource file must be in the directory where the assembly will be saved.

Note

Starting with the .NET Framework 2.0 Service Pack 1, this member no longer requires ReflectionPermission with the ReflectionPermissionFlag.ReflectionEmit flag. (See Security Issues in Reflection Emit.) To use this functionality, your application should target the .NET Framework 3.5 or later.

Applies to

AddResourceFile(String, String, ResourceAttributes)

Adds an existing resource file to this assembly.
