StronglyTypedResourceBuilder::Create Method (IDictionary^, String^, String^, String^, CodeDomProvider^, Boolean, array<String^>^%)

.NET Framework (current version)

Generates a class file that contains strongly typed properties that match the resources referenced in the specified collection.

Namespace: System.Resources.Tools
Assembly: System.Design (in System.Design.dll)

Syntax

C++

public:
static CodeCompileUnit^ Create(
	IDictionary^ resourceList,
	String^ baseName,
	String^ generatedCodeNamespace,
	String^ resourcesNamespace,
	CodeDomProvider^ codeProvider,
	bool internalClass,
	[OutAttribute] array<String^>^% unmatchable
)

Parameters

resourceList: Type: System.Collections::IDictionary^
An IDictionary collection where each dictionary entry key/value pair is the name of a resource and the value of the resource.

baseName: Type: System::String^
The name of the class to be generated.

generatedCodeNamespace: Type: System::String^
The namespace of the class to be generated.

resourcesNamespace: Type: System::String^
The namespace of the resource to be generated.

codeProvider: Type: System.CodeDom.Compiler::CodeDomProvider^
A CodeDomProvider object that provides the language in which the class will be generated.

internalClass: Type: System::Boolean
true to generate an internal class; false to generate a public class.

unmatchable: Type: array<System::String^>^%
A String array that contains each resource name for which a property cannot be generated. Typically, a property cannot be generated because the resource name is not a valid identifier.

Return Value

Type: System.CodeDom::CodeCompileUnit^

A CodeCompileUnit container.

Exceptions

Exception	Condition
ArgumentNullException	resourceList, basename, or codeProvider is null.
ArgumentException	A resource node name does not match its key in resourceList.

Remarks

This overload enables you to use the resourcesNamespace parameter to specify the namespace for the generated resources. In this case, the generated code appears as follows:

System.Resources.ResourceManager rm = new System.Resources.ResourceManager("<resourceNamespace>.<baseName>",typeof(baseName).Assembly);

In most cases, you do not need to call this method from your application code.

The StronglyTypedResourceBuilder class ignores any resource name that begins with the characters "$" or ">>". The resource names "Culture" and "ResourceManager" are invalid identifiers.
