Hi, This code works fine under .NET 3.5 but dies miserably with Mono 2.6.1
using System; using System.Reflection; using System.IO; using System.Drawing; using System.Windows.Forms; using System.Xml; using System.Resources; amespace molarity { /// <summary> /// Description of periodic. /// </summary> public partial class periodic : Form { public periodic() { // // The InitializeComponent() call is required for Windows Forms designer support. // InitializeComponent(); // // TODO: Add constructor code after the InitializeComponent() call. // } /* load the element from the xml file using xmlhander */ void displaytheelement(object sender, EventArgs e) { int m = ((Label)sender).TabIndex - 1; xmlhandler xml = new xmlhandler(); xml.dotheread(m); es.Text = xml.element_structure; atmass.Text = xml.element_weight.ToString(); atno.Text = xml.element_number.ToString(); name.Text = xml.element_name; symbol.Text = xml.element_symbol; Assembly executingAssembly = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly(); try { Stream resourceStream = executingAssembly.GetManifestResourceStream(xml.picname); pictureBox1.Image = new Bitmap(resourceStream); } catch (System.ArgumentException) { MessageBox.Show("Unable to find element picture", "Picture not found", MessageBoxButtons.OK); } } } } The resources are set to be embedded into the binary. I run the executable this comes from and it does what it should (the displaytheelement method gets the information for the data (stored in xmlhandler xml), then uses reflector to grab the embedded image and display in pictureBox1. If the picture isn't found, the message box appears but the application doesn't fall over dead. Under Mono 2.6.1, it doesn't matter which element I click, I always get the message box and the application quits with no throwback. Under .NET, I click on the element, the information appears, the picture appears and if the picture isn't there, the message box appears, but then the application continues. Is the code wrong or am I? I can upload the full source if it will help identify a bug.
