I have one CSV file in my PCL folder, i want to get the path of that file so i can read the files using File.ReadAllLine(). Here is the code I have been used not not getting the file, as i have changed the file to the embedded resources I want this in string[] lines.
string[] lines = File.ReadAllLines("PrinterTestSample.Csv.UserData.csv");
CodePudding user response:
You will need to get a stream from the assembly where the embedded resource is. Below a sample code on how to read it.
// replace App with a class that is in the project where the embedded resource is.
var assembly = typeof(App).GetTypeInfo().Assembly;
// replace App3 with the namespace where your file is
var stream = assembly.GetManifestResourceStream("App3.XMLFile1.xml");
var lines = new List<string>();
using var reader = new StreamReader(stream);
while (reader.ReadLine() is { } line)
{
lines. Add(line);
}
