StronglyTypedResourceBuilder.VerifyResourceName Method

public static string VerifyResourceName (
	string key,
	CodeDomProvider provider
)

public static String VerifyResourceName (
	String key, 
	CodeDomProvider provider
)

public static function VerifyResourceName (
	key : String, 
	provider : CodeDomProvider
) : String

Parameters

key

The string to verify and, if necessary, convert to a valid resource name.

provider

A CodeDomProvider object that specifies the target language to use.

Return Value

The VerifyResourceName method takes a string, compares each character with a set of invalid tokens based on the language specified by the generator parameter, and replaces any invalid characters with an underscore character (which is valid in resource name strings). The characters that will be replaced with an underscore are as follows:

' ' (space), U+00A0 (non-breaking space), '.' (period), ',' (comma), ';' (semicolon), '|', '~', '@', '#', '%', '^', '&', '*', '+', '-', '/', '\\', '<', '>', '?', '[', ']', '(', ')', '{', '}', '"' (quote), ''' (apostrophe), ':', and '!'.

Note

Strongly-typed resources do not allow language keywords (such as if, for, and so on) as resource key names. However, the System.CodeDom design pattern allows the use of language keywords by prefixing the keyword with the underscore character. The VerifyResourceName method calls the CreateValidIdentifier method to enforce this design. Therefore, if you use a resource name that is the same as a language keyword, such as for, the name appears as _for in the generated strongly-typed resource class.
