Access images for my project when it is embedded in another project
- by Vaccano
I have the following situation:
ProjectA needs to show an image on a UserControl.
It has the image in its project (can be a Resource or whatever).
But ProjectA is just a dll. It is used by ProjectB (via Prism).
So doing this in ProjectA works for design time (if the MyImage.png file is set to "Resource" compile action):
<Image Source="pack://application:,,,/ProjectA;component/MyImage.png"></Image>
But at run time, all that is copied to ProjectB is the dll (and that is all I want copied. So MyImage.png is present in the running folder... and it does not show an image.
I thought that Making it Resource would embed it but it does not seem to work.
I also tried to use a Resources.resx and that does not seem to work at all (or I can't find the way to bind the image in xaml).
How can I put the image inside my dll and then reference it from there (or some other non-file system dependent way to get the image)?
