BamlLocalizableResourceKey Class
Represents a key for a BamlLocalizableResource that is used to identify localizable resources.
Assembly: PresentationFramework (in PresentationFramework.dll)
This class represents a key that can uniquely identify a localizable value inside binary XAML (BAML). It is represented as a combination of a Uid, class name, and property name.
The Uid value must be added to the source Extensible Application Markup Language (XAML) file either by using the "updateUid" Microsoft build engine (MSBuild) task (for example, msbuild /t:updateUid myproj.proj), or manually. BAML without a Uid cannot be localized. The class name is the type name of the element that contains the localizable property. Property name refers to the property that has the localizable value. A special property called "$Content" is used to represent values that are implicitly assigned to an element. For example:
<TextBlock x:Uid="myBlock">Click </TextBlock>
The following example demonstrates how to use a BamlLocalizableResourceKey.
// Obtain the BAML stream. Stream source = entry.Value as Stream; // Create a BamlLocalizer on the stream. BamlLocalizer localizer = new BamlLocalizer(source); BamlLocalizationDictionary resources = localizer.ExtractResources(); // Write out all the localizable resources in the BAML. foreach (DictionaryEntry resourceEntry in resources) { BamlLocalizableResourceKey key = resourceEntry.Key as BamlLocalizableResourceKey; BamlLocalizableResource value = resourceEntry.Value as BamlLocalizableResource; Console.WriteLine( " {0}.{1}.{2} = {3}", key.Uid, key.ClassName, key.PropertyName, value.Content ); }
