Dynamically loading resource dictionary files to a wpf application gives an error

Question

I am trying to add a xaml resource file dynamically using the statement,

Application.Current.Resources.MergedDictionaries.Add(new ResourceDictionary() { Sou         


        

Answer 1

To load a content file, you can call the GetContentStream method of the Application class, passing a pack URI that identifies the desired content file.

EDIT

I did it successfully like this

    Uri uri = new Uri("Resources/MyDict.xaml", UriKind.Relative);
    StreamResourceInfo info = Application.GetContentStream(uri);
    System.Windows.Markup.XamlReader reader = new System.Windows.Markup.XamlReader();
    ResourceDictionary myResourceDictionary = 
                                   (ResourceDictionary)reader.LoadAsync(info.Stream);
    Application.Current.Resources.MergedDictionaries.Add(myResourceDictionary);
