Managing Resource Files

Resources are retrieved using the resource's logical name. The logical name maps to a physical location for the resource. The physical location can be one of the following:

The APIs hide the physical location from a user, i.e., a user retrieves a resource by specifying its logical name. This allows a developer to change how the resources are packaged. For example, the runtime resources in mscorlib were in a separate mscorlib.resources file at one time but are today packaged in mscorlib.dll.
