Class FileAsset
Represents a file as an asset, for a caller that was given a path rather than a provider: a test, a tool, or an app that already knows where the file lies.
public class FileAsset : IAsset

FileAsset

- Inherited Members
Remarks
It keeps every asset's contract, so what takes it cannot tell: a missing file throws AssetNotFoundException, not a plain FileNotFoundException. Absence is what Exists(string) tells, so a file it cannot see, such as one without read permission, counts as absent.
