[mono-android] Load resources on a custom library

[Amir Waldman]

You mean add a link to the file... 

That's a nice idea actually. However, since I have different projects that
reference the same class library, it wouldn't work too well...

I've implemented reflection to do the job. It's an ugly design and I'd much
rather having the resources in the class library itself. 
Do you have any plans/timeline for adding this feature to MonoDroid?

Thanks,
Amir

I didn't say to reference the _assembly_. I said to reference the _source_.
For example, in Library.csproj:

	<ItemGroup>
		<Compile
Include="..\AppProject\Resources\Resources.Designer.cs">
			<Link>Resources\Resources.Designer.cs</Link>
		</Compile>
	</ItemGroup>

The compiler doesn't care about "circular references" for source code.
