Public Function GetWebResourceUrl (type As Type, resourceName As String) As String

Parameters

type: Type

The type of the resource.

resourceName: String

The fully qualified name of the resource in the assembly.

Returns

String

The URL reference to the resource.

Exceptions

ArgumentNullException

The web resource type is null.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates the use of the GetWebResourceUrl method. The type parameter in this example is set to the type of class in the assembly containing the resource. The resourceName parameter is specified with the fully qualified path to the resource, which includes the default namespace.

The following code example demonstrates how to programmatically apply the WebResourceAttribute metadata attribute to mark the assembly for the resources that will be served. Compile the following class in a class library with a default namespace set to Samples.AspNet.CS.Controls or Samples.AspNet.VB.Controls, depending on what language you are using.

using System;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.UI;
using System.Security.Permissions;

[assembly: WebResource("Samples.AspNet.CS.Controls.script_include.js", "application/x-javascript")]
namespace Samples.AspNet.CS.Controls
{
    [AspNetHostingPermission(SecurityAction.Demand, Level = AspNetHostingPermissionLevel.Minimal)]
    public class ClientScriptResourceLabel
    {
        // Class code goes here.
    }
}

Imports System.Web
Imports System.Web.UI
Imports System.Security.Permissions

<Assembly: WebResource("Samples.AspNet.VB.Controls.script_include.js", "application/x-javascript")> 
Namespace Samples.AspNet.VB.Controls

    <AspNetHostingPermission(SecurityAction.Demand, Level:=AspNetHostingPermissionLevel.Minimal)> _
    Public Class ClientScriptResourceLabel

        ' Class code goes here.

    End Class

End Namespace

This example requires a JavaScript file named Script_include.js. The .js file is an embedded resource in the assembly that contains the ClientScriptResourceLabel object. If you are using Visual Studio, in the Properties window of the class library project, set Build Action to Embedded Resource when the script file is selected. If you are compiling the library at the command line, use the /resource switch to embed the resource.

function DoClick() {Form1.Message.value='Text from resource script.'}

Remarks

The GetWebResourceUrl method returns a URL reference to a resource embedded in an assembly. The returned reference is not URL encoded. Resources can be script files, images, or any static file. You specify the type based on the object that will be accessing the resource.

A Web resource registered with the page is uniquely identified by its type and name. Only one resource with a given type and name pair can be registered with the page. Attempting to register a resource that is already registered does not create a duplicate of the registered resource.

The GetWebResourceUrl method is used in conjunction with the RegisterClientScriptResource method for accessing resources embedded in assemblies. For more information on using resources in applications, see ASP.NET Web Page Resources Overview.
