Cannot find the embedded schemas in the assembly

Question

I have DefaultSchemaSet.xsd. Now I'm getting FileNotFoundException for the codes below. Give me any suggestion, please? May I know how to solve this?

public static void GetDefaultSchemas(string path, XmlSchemaSet schemas, ValidationEventHandler schemaValidationEventHandler)
    {
        using (var stream = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetManifestResourceStream(path))
        {
            if (stream == null)
            {
                throw new FileNotFoundException("Cannot find the embedded schemas in the assembly!");
            }

            var schema = XmlSchema.Read(stream, schemaValidationEventHandler);
            schemas.Add(schema);
        }
    }

Check the format of the resource name:

DefaultNamespace[.Subfolder][...MoreSubfolers].FileName[.extension]

You need to set Build Action to Embedded Resource in project's file's properties.

Also, you need to check the namespace you use for your project:

Try to examine the available resources, so you can find if a particular one present:

        var executingAssembly = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly();
        var resourceNames = executingAssembly.GetManifestResourceNames();
        foreach (var resourceName in resourceNames)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("Resource: " + resourceName);
            Console.WriteLine("Contents:");
            using (var sr = new StreamReader(executingAssembly.GetManifestResourceStream(resourceName)))
            {
                Console.WriteLine(sr.ReadToEnd());
            }
        }

Output:

Resource: EmbeddingTests.TextFile1.txt
Contents:
Hello
Resource: EmbeddingTests.NewFolder1.TextFile2.txt
Contents:
Hello 2
