AddResource(String, Object)
Adds a named resource specified as an object to the list of resources to write.
public:
virtual void AddResource(System::String ^ name, System::Object ^ value);
public void AddResource (string name, object value);
public void AddResource (string name, object? value);
abstract member AddResource : string * obj -> unit
override this.AddResource : string * obj -> unit
Public Sub AddResource (name As String, value As Object)
Parameters
- name
- String
The name of the resource.
- value
- Object
The value of the resource.
Implements
Examples
The following example creates a .resx file named CarResources.resx
that stores six strings, an icon, and two application-defined objects (two Automobile
objects). To store the icon and the Automobile
objects, it calls the AddResource(String, Object) method. Note that the Automobile
class, which is defined and instantiated in the example, is tagged with the SerializableAttribute attribute.
