Customise generated OData NAV.cs to look look up more specific Manifest file

[xuzhg]

Stackoverflow: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/79595672/customise-generated-odata-nav-cs-to-look-look-up-more-specific-manifest-file

Goal

Have multiple generated OData models in the same project.

Problem

When I generate the files using dotnet odata-cli generate, the NAV.cs contains code that looks for a single file by OData ServiceCsdl.xml (see below). The issue with multiple generated OData models is that I have multiple of these XML files embedded in the project, so it throws an exception

global::System.Linq.Enumerable.Single(assembly.GetManifestResourceNames(), str => str.EndsWith(filePath));

I looked at the options of the CLI tool and didn't see anything relevant

Is there a way around this? e.g. Give it a more specific path

Workaround

Use multiple projects, which is annoying for our circumstances, but will use it if have to

[habbes]

This is somewhat related to #360

This was partially fixed by #407 which fixes the case where the files have different names but same ending.

What if we add an option to specify the filename?
