Change image source in code behind - Wpf

I need to set image source dynamically, please note my image is in somewhere on the Network, here is my code

BitmapImage logo = new BitmapImage();
logo.BeginInit();
logo.UriSource = new Uri(@"pack://application:,,,\\myserver\\folder1\\Customer Data\\sample.png");
logo.EndInit(); // Getting the exception here
ImageViewer1.Source = logo;

Exception:

The URI prefix is not recognized

Solution

  • You just need one line:

    ImageViewer1.Source = new BitmapImage(new Uri(@"\myserver\folder1\Customer Data\sample.png"));
