Problem with assembly for a sample app

Posted: Apr 2, 2003 12:04 PM

I got the following error message after building/running a sample TreeView C# example:

mscorlib.dll

Additional information: Could not find any resources appropriate for the specified culture (or the neutral culture) in the given assembly.  Make sure "TreeViewCtl.resources" was correctly embedded or linked into assembly "TreeViewDemo".
baseName: TreeViewCtl  locationInfo: TreeViewCtl  resource file name: TreeViewCtl.resources  assembly: TreeViewDemo, Version=1.0.1186.28592, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null

Offending line #422:
            imageList2.ImageStream = (System.Windows.Forms.ImageListStreamer)resources.GetObject("imageList2.ImageSt ream");

The problem is no doubt caused by the way I cobbled together the example from the three .cs files (listed below) obtained from http://samples.gotdotnet.com/quickstart/util/srcview.aspx?path=/quickstart/winforms/Samples/ControlReference/TreeViewCtl/TreeViewCtl.src&file=CS\TreeViewCtl.cs&font=3

Because I didn't know how to create an assembly to go along witht the sample .cs files, I started by creating a new WindowsApplication project "TreeViewDemo".

I then built three new text files in the TreeViewDemo folder,
DirectoryNode.cs
PlatformInvokeKernel32.cs
TreeViewCtl.cs
and copied/pasted the code from the Web into them.

Finally, using Solution Explorer, I deleted the generated Form1.cs and then added the three .cs files just mentioned.

The project compiled cleanly, but hung with the error diagnostic indicated above. Any suggestions on how to resolve this would be greatly appreciated.

In your post, there seems to be a spurious space in "imageList2.ImageSt ream" -- maybe that is the cause (or was that just an effect of posting the code and not in the real code?).

If not this, it may be that crazy old bug in .Net where it has some confusion between your system locale setting and user locale setting, if they don't match. Or some such nonsense like that...

Hi Matt,

Many thanks for your reply. You've got sharp eyes. The space that you noticed is due to a error in the

 font; perhaps it has some funny kerning rule.  I reposted that line below, again with [code] font, and definitely no space in my source code.

[code]imageList2.ImageStream = (System.Windows.Forms.ImageListStreamer)resources.GetObject("imageList2.ImageSt ream");

More importantly, in checking out the error you noted,
I recompiled the project and the error disappeared. I don't believe I made a single change in the project.

I think the method I used to test the sample code is faulty, as evidenced by the earlier failure, so I'd like to know the proper way to build a project given merely a few .cs files.

I took a different approach, which produced a different symptom. I'll post about after I explore it further.

Again, thanks for your response.

Regards,
Richard
