It looks like the current implementation of
Resources.GetFileInfo(string) has this problem too.
I came up with this but I don't like it...
// ???
public static FileInfo GetApplicationBaseFileInfo(string path)
{
return GetFileInfo(Path.Combine(_applicationBase, path));
}
public static FileInfo GetFileInfo(string path)
{
FileInfo fileInfo = null;
try
{
fileInfo = new FileInfo(path);
}
catch(Exception e)
{
// ArgumentNullException
// Security.SecurityException
// ArgumentException
// UnauthorizedAccessException
// IO.PathTooLongException
// NotSupportedException
throw new ConfigurationException(
string.Format("Unable to load file \"{0}\" from path.", path), e);
}
// fileInfo.Exist may be false
return fileInfo;
}
I think it should be the callers responsibility to pass in the correct
application base path.
