Dynamically Add Resource

[JurkMonkey]

Does anyone know how to add a resource to a project during runtime?

I want to imbed a file in my project that is chosen by the user.

Thanks

- instantiate a ResourceWriter object.
- open the resource file in which to add
- call AddResource() to add a string or an object to a resource file
- call Close();

FileStream fs = new FileStream("myassembly.resources", 
        FileMode.Append,FileAccess.Write);
 IResourceWriter rw = new ResourceWriter (fs);
    
     wr.AddResource("Thank", "Merçi!");
     Bitmap bmp = new Bitmap("myfile.jpg");
     wr.AddResource("Bmp", bmp);
     wr.Close();

Please explain myassembly.resources

Thanks

For example, if your assembly MyApp has two forms , Form1, Form2 then:

string [] resnames = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetManifestResourceNames();

will give the followings resnames:
"MyApp.Form1.resources"
and
"MyApp.Form2.resources"
