ResourceManager Constructor (String, Assembly)

Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.

Updated: October 2010

Initializes a new instance of the ResourceManager class that looks up resources contained in files derived from the specified root name using the given Assembly.

Namespace: System.Resources
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Sub New ( _
    baseName As String, _
    assembly As Assembly _
)

public ResourceManager(
    string baseName,
    Assembly assembly
)

Parameters

baseName
Type: System.String
The root name of the resource file without its extension but including a fully qualified namespace name. For example, the root name for the resource file named "MyApplication.MyResource.en-US.resources" is "MyApplication.MyResource".

assembly
Type: System.Reflection.Assembly
The main assembly for the resources.

Exceptions

Exception	Condition
ArgumentNullException	The baseName or assembly parameter is nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).
ArgumentException	assembly is not a run-time object.

Remarks

The individual resource files should be contained in satellite assemblies with the invariant culture's.resource file contained in the main assembly. A satellite assembly is assumed to contain resources for a single culture specified in that assembly's manifest, and are loaded as necessary.

If the resource file identified by baseName cannot be found in assembly, the method instantiates a ResourceManager object, but the attempt to retrieve a specific resource throws an exception, typically a MissingManifestResourceException.

Notes to Implementers

This constructor uses the system-provided ResourceSet implementation. To use a custom resource file format, you should derive from the ResourceSet class, override GetDefaultReader and GetDefaultWriter, and pass that type to the ResourceManager constructor. Using a custom ResourceSet can be useful for controlling resource caching policy or supporting your own resource file format, but is generally not necessary.

Examples

The following example defines a new instance of the ResourceManager class that looks for executing assemblies under the item's root name. The code then checks for the culture of the currently executing thread and displays a culture-appropriate welcome message.

Imports System.Globalization
Imports System.Threading
Imports System.Resources
Imports System.Reflection

Class Example

   Public Shared Sub Demo(ByVal outputBlock As System.Windows.Controls.TextBlock)
      ' Create a resource manager to retrieve resources.
      Dim rm As New ResourceManager("items", _
         [Assembly].GetExecutingAssembly())

      ' Get the culture of the currently executing thread.
      ' The value of ci will determine the culture of
      ' the resources that the resource manager retrieves.
      Dim ci As CultureInfo = Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture

      ' Retrieve the value of the string resource named 
      ' "welcome" localized for the culture specified by ci.
      Dim str As [String] = rm.GetString("welcome", ci)
      outputBlock.Text &= str & vbCrLf
   End Sub
End Class

using System;
using System.Globalization;
using System.Threading;
using System.Resources;
using System.Reflection;

class Example
{
   public static void Demo(System.Windows.Controls.TextBlock outputBlock)
   {
      // Create a resource manager to retrieve resources.
      ResourceManager rm = new ResourceManager("items",
         Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly());

      // Get the culture of the currently executing thread.
      // The value of ci will determine the culture of
      // the resources that the resource manager retrieves.
      CultureInfo ci = Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture;

      // Retrieve the value of the string resource named 
      // "welcome", localized for the culture specified by ci.
      String str = rm.GetString("welcome", ci);
      outputBlock.Text += str + "\n";
   }
}
