ResourceProviderFactory.CreateLocalResourceProvider Method

When overridden in a derived class, creates a local resource provider.

Namespace:  System.Web.Compilation
Assembly:  System.Web (in System.Web.dll)
public abstract IResourceProvider CreateLocalResourceProvider(
	string virtualPath
)

Parameters

virtualPath
Type: System.String
The path to a resource file.

When overridden in a derived class, this method returns an IResourceProvider object for the given virtualPath parameter. The method could be implemented such that virtualPath maps to a resource file.

The following code example shows a customized resource provider factory that implements the CreateLocalResourceProvider method and retrieves cached values.

        typeof(CustomDesignTimeResourceProviderFactory))

public class CustomResourceProviderFactory : ResourceProviderFactory
{
    public override IResourceProvider
      CreateGlobalResourceProvider(string classname)
    {

    }
    public override IResourceProvider
      CreateLocalResourceProvider(string virtualPath)
    {
        return new CustomResourceProvider(virtualPath, null);
    }
}

// Define the resource provider for global and local resources.
