ModuleBuilder::DefineUnmanagedResource Method (String^)

 

Defines an unmanaged resource given the name of Win32 resource file.

Namespace:   System.Reflection.Emit
Assembly:  mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)

public:
void DefineUnmanagedResource(
	String^ resourceFileName
)

Parameters

resourceFileName
Type: System::String^

The name of the unmanaged resource file.

Exception Condition
ArgumentException

An unmanaged resource has already been defined in the module's assembly.

-or-

resourceFileName is the empty string ("").

ArgumentNullException

resourceFileName is null.

FileNotFoundException

resourceFileName is not found.

-or-

resourceFileName is a directory.

An assembly can be associated with only one unmanaged resource. This means that calling DefineVersionInfoResource or DefineUnmanagedResource after either one of the methods was called previously throws ArgumentException. Multiple unmanaged resources need to be merged with a tool such as the Microsoft ResMerge utility (not supplied with the common language runtime).
