Thanks for replying - I did in fact already work this out. I will put this in the docs or on the wiki somewhere.

Dear Jim, 

this is quite easy to achieve using an "embedded ressource" for the template. Add the file in VS to your project and select "Embedded Resource" as a build option in the properties of the file. 

In your code, you can use something like this: 

        private StringTemplateGroup GetTemplateFromResource( string resource ) 
        { 
            StringTemplateGroup group = null; 
            Assembly assembly = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly(); 
            Stream stream = assembly.GetManifestResourceStream( resource ); 

            if( stream != null ) 
            { 
                var reader = new StreamReader( stream ); 
                group = new StringTemplateGroup( reader ); 
            } 
    // else: template not found ! 
            return group; 
        } 

The resource parameter is the fully qualified name of the embedded resource, e.g. "Xyz.Template.stg" if Xyz is the standard namespace of the project and Template.stg is the name of the template file. Be aware that you need to recompile when changing the template. 

Freundliche Grüße / Best Regards

[stringtemplate-interest] Packaging C# StringTemplate in an assembly

 

		




So I can't find any example (maybe I am blind) of how to add a .stg file into my C# project so that it goes in to the assembly and can be loaded at runtime. Anyone got an example of loading from the .Net assembly? 
  
Cheers,
