Source:: ResourceWriter.cs

Source:: ResourceWriter.cs

Adds a named resource specified as a byte array to the list of resources to be written.

public:
 virtual void AddResource(System::String ^ name, cli::array <System::Byte> ^ value);

public void AddResource (string name, byte[]? value);

public void AddResource (string name, byte[] value);

abstract member AddResource : string * byte[] -> unit
override this.AddResource : string * byte[] -> unit

Public Sub AddResource (name As String, value As Byte())

Parameters

name: String

The name of the resource.

value: Byte[]

Value of the resource as an 8-bit unsigned integer array.

Implements

AddResource(String, Byte[])

Exceptions

ArgumentException

name (or a name that varies only by capitalization) has already been added to this ResourceWriter.

ArgumentNullException

The name parameter is null.

InvalidOperationException

This ResourceWriter has been closed and its hash table is unavailable.

Examples

The following example uses the AddResource(String, Byte[]) method to add a graphics image that has been read as an array of bytes to a ResourceWriter object.

using System;
using System.IO;
using System.Resources;

public class Example
{
   public static void Main()
   {
      // Get the image as an array of bytes.
      FileStream byteStream = new FileStream("AppIcon.jpg", FileMode.Open);
      Byte[] bytes = new Byte[(int) byteStream.Length];
      byteStream.Read(bytes, 0, (int) byteStream.Length);
      
      // Create the resource file.
      using (ResourceWriter rw = new ResourceWriter(@".\UIImages.resources")) {
         rw.AddResource("AppIcon", byteStream);
         // Add any other resources.
      }
   }
}

Imports System.IO
Imports System.Resources

Module Example
   Public Sub Main()                      
      ' Get the image as an array of bytes.
      Dim byteStream As New FileStream("AppIcon.jpg", Filemode.Open)
      Dim bytes(CInt(byteStream.Length - 1)) As Byte
      byteStream.Read(bytes, 0, CInt(byteStream.Length))
      
      ' Create the resource file.
      Using rw As New ResourceWriter(".\UIImages.resources")
         rw.AddResource("AppIcon", byteStream)
         ' Add any other resources.
      End Using
   End Sub
End Module

Remarks

// Class to hold potentially localized column names.
[Serializable] public class DonorColumns
{
   readonly string ID;
   readonly string Name;
   readonly string Total;
   readonly string Last;
   readonly string Amt;

   public DonorColumns(string id, string name, string total, 
                  string last, string amt)
   {                  
      this.ID = id;
      this.Name = name;
      this.Total = total;
      this.Last = last;
      this.Amt = amt;                        
   }   
}

DonorColumns is a custom class whose fields contain the names of columns to be displayed in the user interface. Note that the class is marked with the SerializableAttribute attribute. Ordinarily, the class would be defined in a separate assembly, and a reference to it would be provided to the compiler at compile time.

Remarks

value must be serializable.

The resource is not written until the Generate method is called.
