Summary
Expands the
EmbeddedResourcedocumentation that has been a recurring source of confusion for users (see #1315, which has been open since 2020 and received multiple "me too" acknowledgements).Changes
docs/library/JsonProvider.fsxThe existing section was a single paragraph with just the code example. This PR expands it with:
(EmbeddedResource)tag in the.fsprojEmbeddedResourceparameter value — the key insight that path separators become dots, prefixed with the assembly name.dllto verify the resource namedocs/library/CsvProvider.fsxPreviously just said "see JSON provider docs" with no details. Now adds a brief section explaining the
EmbeddedResourcepattern for CSV with a concrete one-liner example, before directing readers to the full guide.Why this matters
Issue #1315 (reported in 2020) describes hours lost to figuring out the
EmbeddedResourcesyntax experimentally. The naming convention (AssemblyName, AssemblyName.path.with.dots.to.file) is non-obvious and underdocumented. This PR brings the documentation up to the level needed to avoid that confusion.Test Status
Documentation-only change — no build or test run required.
Addresses #1315.
