It does not know about and won't add to the EXE file. Anything added separately (like I did when I added my own subdirectory) It looks like when Visual Studio compiles the app, it includes all that it knows about the app with the EXE file (ie it knew about that image because I added it through Visual Studio). That is obviously a relative path from the Properties directory. The Resources.resx file is located in the /Properties directory and it contains a reference to the image as. After compiling the app, I can take the EXE file and execute if from anywhere and the This apparently makes a copy of whatever file I choose and puts it in the /Resources directory and also adds it to the. For example, I have a PictureBox control in which I add the image in the Visual Studio Image property for that control and use "Project resourceįile". Now, however, I am trying to understand how references to other files added via Visual Studio are not broken. I can see why this is happening and that is okay. If I take that EXE and move it to some other directory and execute it, my relative path is broken because I did not bring over the directory structure with my config file. When I am in my Visual Studio project bubble, all was well when I used a relative path from by bin/Debug directory (where the EXE file

Yeah, now I am a little more confused, which I will chalk up to my lack of C# Windows Forms application experience. Here is a snippet to prove it once and for all: The leading slash will effectively say "go to the root directory He's not listening to my advice already given to ignore those extra directory seperators. Leading slash on his path or navigating up and away from the application directory.
The OP's problem is that he is specifying a

EXE in a nested folder then he would need to navigate back up the directory tree to his "resources" directory But you are correct s3rvy, if the OP would place his. The op has said nothing about placing the application. In fact, I furtherĬlarified the post by saying "if you were going to open a file in the same directory as your application." and explained what the path strings were doing. I did NOT say the project's directory and my example clearly showed the folder I was using for reference. I said the application's directory, which means whatever directory the. the resx gets embedded in the application). This "imported resource" is compiled into the resx and is not deployed with the application in production (b.c. Otherwise, it can go to a different resx in the project but that creates a folder "Resources" when it imports the file If you load an image into a picture box and choose "Local Resource" it goes to your Form's resx file as shown in the image above. Here is a picture showing you how a Form's RESX file is configured to be embedded: For more information, read the above link for Resources in Applications. (and the easiest way to work with them) and you have already seen how they work. A resx contains its resources and can be embedded in an assembly. This is typically how WinForms resx files are compiled Obviously, how a RESX file works is a much more complicated discussion (I'll save that for later but it's homework for you). they were embedded in the EXE itself and not dependant on the directory structure). You moved the app to a different directory (b.c. Not true, and this is why those "worked" when Last, you assumed the project's resource file (RESX) contents were needed in your application's runtime directory (such as the ones created/used when you add an Image to a PictureBox). Will break your path as I've laid out in much detail in my previous posts. Let me try to summarize these two issues one last time for you:įirst, you were adding an extra "/" to the beginning of your relative path for a loose file and this I think I understood how you get here, hence another post. Resources in Applications, which are usually embedded in an assembly, with loose files your application can load at runtime using a relative path. That's not his problem in this case, but good to point out for him none the less.
