c# - Spring.NET ObjectDefinitionStoreException using assembly to store configuration files -

i learning spring.net, created class myapplication , library class mylib spring configuration files myapplication needs.

i retrieve metadata using:

iapplicationcontext ctx = new xmlapplicationcontext("assembly..."); 

i have 3 different xml files, 1 (springconfiguration.xml) imports 2 other. @ beginning of tries, spring configuration files @ root level of mylib. worked fine.

----- mylib -- properties -- references -- commonspring.xml -- buttonspring.xml -- springconfiguration.xml 

then created folders in mylib store xml files , fails if use subfolders:

the following works:

----- mylib --properties --references --common     --commonspring.xml --gui        --buttonspring.xml --configuration     --springconfiguration.xml 

my springconfiguration.xml file then:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> <objects xmlns="http://www.springframework.net"> <import resource="common/commonspring.xml"/> <import resource="gui/buttonspring.xml"/> </objects> 

and retrieve context with:

iapplicationcontext ctx = new xmlapplicationcontext("assembly://mylib/mylib/configuration.springconfiguration.xml"); 

but if use subfolders fails:

----- mylib --properties --references --common     --commonspring.xml --gui     --specialbutton         --buttonspring.xml --configuration     --springconfiguration.xml 

my springconfiguration.xml file then:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> <objects xmlns="http://www.springframework.net"> <import resource="common/commonspring.xml"/> <import resource="gui/specialbutton/buttonspring.xml"/> </objects> 

and retrieve context with:

iapplicationcontext ctx = new xmlapplicationcontext("assembly://mylib/mylib/configuration.springconfiguration.xml"); 

the error is:

{"error registering object defined in 'assembly [mylib, version=1.0.0.0, culture=neutral, publickeytoken=null], resource [mylib.configuration.springconfiguration.xml] @ line 5' : invalid relative resource location 'gui/specialbutton/buttonspring.xml' import object definitions from.\r\n<import resource=\"gui/specialbutton/buttonspring.xml\" xmlns=\"http://www.springframework.net\" />"} 

i tried several syntaxes, looked in documentation , did not find solution. has idee of problem?

update ok found myself: correct syntaxe is:

<import resource="gui.specialbutton.buttonspring.xml"/> 

then no errors raised anymore , work fine.

to let know here solution found: in springconfiguration.xml instead of refering spring configuration file nested in folders as:

<import resource="gui/specialbutton/buttonspring.xml"/> 

one has write:

<import resource="gui.specialbutton.buttonspring.xml"/> 

@marijn: thank explanation, understanding solution better finding ;)
