Class LocalizeExtension

Namespace

RentADeveloper.ResXLocalization.WPF

Assembly

ResXLocalization.WPF.dll

XAML markup extension that produces a binding to a localized string, re-resolving automatically whenever Current changes culture. Usage in XAML: {l:Localize {x:Static res:StringsKeys.Greeting}} for a typed key, {l:Localize SomeKey} for a key-only lookup across all registered resource managers, or {l:Localize Key=SomeKey, ResourceManager={x:Static res:Strings.ResourceManager}} to scope the lookup to one file. When the resource value is a composite format string, supply its arguments by binding the LocalizeArgs attached properties on the target element.

Constructors

LocalizeExtension()

Initializes a new instance of the LocalizeExtension class.

public LocalizeExtension()

LocalizeExtension(object)

Initializes a new instance of the LocalizeExtension class from a single positional argument. A typed ResourceKey (for example from {x:Static res:StringsKeys.Greeting}) becomes ResourceKey; a string becomes Key; any other value leaves Key empty. A single object-typed constructor is used instead of overloads so WPF's positional-argument resolution is never ambiguous.

public LocalizeExtension(object key)

Parameters

key object

A ResourceKey or a key string.

Properties

Key

Gets or sets the resource key to resolve. Used when ResourceKey is not set. If ResourceManager is also set, the lookup is scoped to that file; otherwise every registered resource manager is searched.

public string Key { get; set; }

Property Value

string

ResourceKey

Gets or sets a typed, file-scoped key. When set, it takes precedence over Key and ResourceManager and resolves through its own resource manager.

public ResourceKey? ResourceKey { get; set; }

Property Value

ResourceKey?

ResourceManager

Gets or sets the resource manager that scopes a Key lookup to a single .resx file. Ignored when ResourceKey is set; when both this and ResourceKey are unset, the key is searched across all registered resource managers.

public ResourceManager? ResourceManager { get; set; }

Property Value

ResourceManager

Methods

ProvideValue(IServiceProvider)

Provides the value supplied to the target property: a multi-binding whose value is the localized string for the configured key, updated live on every culture change and on every change of the target element's LocalizeArgs arguments.

public override object ProvideValue(IServiceProvider serviceProvider)

Parameters

serviceProvider IServiceProvider

The service provider supplied by the XAML loader.

Returns

object

A WPF multi-binding that yields the localized string.
