System.Resources.NeutralResourcesLanguageAttribute Class

Summary

Informs the ResourceManager of the neutral culture of an assembly. This class cannot be inherited.

C# Syntax:

[AttributeUsage(AttributeTargets.Assembly)] public sealed class NeutralResourcesLanguageAttribute : Attribute

The NeutralResourcesLanguageAttribute informs the ResourceManager of the language used to write the neutral culture's resources for an assembly. When looking up resources in the same culture as the neutral resources language, the ResourceManager will automatically use the resources located in the main assembly, instead of searching for a satellite assembly with the current user interface culture for the current thread. This will improve lookup performance for the first resource you load, and can reduce your working set.

Note Apply this attribute to your main assembly, passing it the name of the neutral language that will work with your main assembly.

System.Resources.NeutralResourcesLanguageAttribute Member Details

Summary

Initializes a new instance of the NeutralResourcesLanguageAttribute class.

C# Syntax:

public NeutralResourcesLanguageAttribute(    string cultureName );

cultureName

The name of the culture that the current assembly's neutral resources were written in.

Exceptions

Exception Type	Condition
ArgumentNullException	The cultureName parameter is null.

See the CultureInfo class for possible names of a culture.

Summary

Gets the culture name.

C# Syntax:

public string CultureName {get;}

See the CultureInfo class for possible names of a culture.

Inherited
See base class member description: System.Attribute.TypeId

Summary

When implemented in a derived class, gets a unique identifier for this Attribute.

C# Syntax:

public virtual object TypeId {get;}

As implemented, this identifier is merely the Type of the attribute. However, it is intended that the unique identifier be used to identify two attributes of the same type.

Summary

Returns the hash code for this instance.

Return Value:

A 32-bit signed integer hash code.

Inherited
See base class member description: System.Attribute.IsDefaultAttribute

Summary

When overridden in a derived class, returns an indication whether the value of this instance is the default value for the derived class.

C# Syntax:

public virtual bool IsDefaultAttribute();

Return Value:

true if this instance is the default attribute for the class; otherwise, false.

The default implementation of this class returns false, and must be implemented in the derived class to be useful to that class.

The implementation of this method in a derived class compares the value of this instance to a standard, default value obtained by some means, then returns a Boolean value that indicates whether the value of this instance is equal to the standard. The standard value is typically coded as a constant in the implementation, or stored programmatically in a field used by the implementation.

Inherited
See base class member description: System.Attribute.Match

Summary

When overridden in a derived class, returns a value indicating whether this instance equals a specified object.

C# Syntax:

public virtual bool Match(    object obj );

obj

An Object to compare with this instance of Attribute.

Return Value:

true if this instance equals obj; otherwise, false.

This method determines if one Attribute equals another. Its default implementation is the same as Attribute.Equals, which performs a value and reference comparison. Override this method to implement support for attribute values, such as flags or bitfields, that consist of components that are meaningful in themselves. For example, consider an attribute whose value is a binary field divided into a bitfield of flags. Two instances of this attribute have one flag in set in common while all the other flags differ. The Equal method cannot determine that the two instances have the same flag set, but the Match method can.
