protected virtual string GetLocalizedString(
	string value
)

Parameters

value
Type: System.String
The identifier for the category to look up.

Return Value

Type: System.String
The localized name of the category, or null if a localized name does not exist.

The Category property calls this method the first time it is accessed to look up the localized name for the specified category.

Notes to Inheritors

Override this method to add your own localized names to categories. If a localized string is available for the given value, the method should return it. Otherwise, call the base class's GetLocalizedString method to let the base class localize the string.
