This works really easily using the <resources> element of csc.
But there are a few tricks you need to apply. You need to add the
dynamicprefix attribute of true if you want the directory names prepended to
the resourcename.
<csc ...>
<resources prefix="XML:" dynamicprefix="true" basedir="Resources">
<includes name="**/*"
</resources>
</csc>
Optionally, as I have done above, you can also specify a prefix value, but
it is not required. It is also of interest to note you can also specify resx
format files in there too. They will automatically be compiled into
.resource files and embedded also.
This will name the resources in the assembly as "XML:.Files.Valid.file1.xml"
You can then get to them by using
Assembly.GetManifestResourceStream(resName)
I hope this helps some people out there.
