[Gtk-sharp-list] Glade using resources

[underdog10 at netcourrier.com]

Well  i think of 2 work around:

1- Modify Galde.XML.LoadFromresources to make it loading external files from resources.
2- Add all application imge to the Gtk.StockItem and Gtk.IconFactory, and make glade load image from stock.

As anyone try the second method ?

The idea is to put image data in your program compile it in as a resource and load it from glade XML file. This way you will not need to depend on loading external files, your application binary can be self-contained.
