Remarks

The LocalizedNameAttribute class allows the caller to determine the localized name of the extension without loading the extension.

Note   To give the extension a name which is dependent on the user's language, you must override the GetLocalizedString method.

Examples

The following code snippet shows the LocalizedNameAttribute being set on an extension class:

[C#]

namespace PolygonsCRI

{

[LocalizedName("Polygons")]

[Editor(typeof(CustomEditor), typeof(ComponentEditor))]

[ToolboxBitmap(typeof(PolygonsDesigner),"Polygons.ico")]

// this CRI-specific attribute sets the name of the

// custom report item which is referenced by the config

// files and saved in the report definition language

[CustomReportItem("Polygons")]

// the main class for our CRI design-time component

public class PolygonsDesigner : CustomReportItemDesigner

{

...

}
