c# - Embedded resources in assembly containing culture name in filename will not load -

i'm trying embed email templates in class library. works fine, until use filename containing culture-name following notation: templatename.nl-nl.cshtml resource not seem available.

example code:

namespace manifestresources  {     class program     {         static void main(string[] args)         {             var assembly = assembly.getexecutingassembly();              // works fine             var mailtemplate = assembly.getmanifestresourcestream("manifestresources.mailtemplate.cshtml");              // not ok, localized mail template null             var localizedmailtemplate = assembly.getmanifestresourcestream("manifestresources.mailtemplate.nl-nl.cshtml");         }     } } 

templates both have build action set 'embeddedresource'.

obvious solution use different notation, notation. has solution problem?

are sure have right name resourceset when open resourcestream? unless manifestresources project base namespace , .cshtml file lives in root folder resourceset name invalid.

the way .net projects generate resourceset name use open resource stream based on base namespace plus folder hierarchy. example:

basenamespaceofproject.views.controller.yourpage.nl-nl.cshtml

the easiest way check make sure can see resource looks open final assembly (or resource assembly) tool reflector/dotpeek , see actual embedded resourceset , resource ids are.
