This section explains how to extract module icon that is displayed as module button on module bar.

There could be several ways of extracting icons from Noah 3 (.dll) for 4 (.exe) modules. Here is how Noah 4 GUI (Module Bar) extracts icon from Modules:

BusinessSystemExternalControlsLibrary.Converters defines a Converter class named as

ModuleImageConverter, which is used to extract the module icon of size 115 * 33.

Here is the usage example:

Xaml code:

<Image Name="imgLogoDLLPath" Width="115" Height="35"/>

C# code:

BitmapImage bi3 = new BitmapImage();

bi3.BeginInit();

bi3.UriSource = new Uri(firstModule.LogoDLLPath, UriKind.Relative);

bi3.EndInit();

ModuleImageConverter imageConverter = new ModuleImageConverter();

imgLogoDLLPath.Source = (ImageSource) imageConverter.Convert(firstModule.LogoDLLPath, null,

null, null);

You can also directly bind the converter in XAML, First define the declaration at the top of xaml file.

xmlns:converters="clr-namespace:BusinessSystemExternalControlsLibrary.Converters"

Than define the image tag with and remember to pass bindings.

<Image Source="{Binding Path=Module.LogoDLLPath, Converter={StaticResource

ModuleImageConverter}}"/>
