.NET Framework (current version)

Provides an abstract base class for various resource keys.

Namespace: System.Windows
Assembly: PresentationFramework (in PresentationFramework.dll)

Inheritance Hierarchy

System.Windows::TemplateKey

Syntax

C++

[MarkupExtensionReturnTypeAttribute((ResourceKey^::typeid))]
public ref class ResourceKey abstract : MarkupExtension

Constructors

	Name	Description
	ResourceKey()	Initializes a new instance of a class derived from ResourceKey.

Properties

	Name	Description
	Assembly	Gets an assembly object that indicates which assembly's dictionary to look in for the value associated with this key.

Methods

	Name	Description
	Equals(Object^)	Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object.(Inherited from Object.)
	Finalize()	Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection.(Inherited from Object.)
	GetHashCode()	Serves as the default hash function. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetType()	Gets the Type of the current instance.(Inherited from Object.)
	MemberwiseClone()	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object.(Inherited from Object.)
	ProvideValue(IServiceProvider^)	Returns this ResourceKey. Instances of this class are typically used as a key in a dictionary. (Overrides MarkupExtension::ProvideValue(IServiceProvider^).)
	ToString()	Returns a string that represents the current object.(Inherited from Object.)

Remarks

This class provides no functionality except to supply a common base class for simple key detection in resource components.

Resource keys are either strings or instances of a type. This class provides support for classes that base key values on other object values, where the objects passed in assure uniqueness of the generated resource keys.
