This project uses SponsorLink to attribute sponsor status (direct, indirect or implicit). For IDE usage, sponsor status is required. IDE-only warnings will be issued after a grace period otherwise.

This package generates a static ThisAssembly.Strings class with public constants exposing string resources in .resx files or methods with the right number of parameters for strings that use formatting parameters.

In addition, it groups constants and methods in nested classes according to an optional underscore separator to organize strings. For example, User_InvalidCredentials can be accessed with ThisAssembly.Strings.User.InvalidCredentials if it contains a simple string, or as a method with the right number of parametres if its value has a format string.

Given the following Resx file:

Name	Value	Comment
Infrastructure_MissingService	Service {0} is required.	For logging only!
Shopping_NoShipping	We cannot ship {0} to {1}.
Shopping_OutOfStock	Product is out of stock at this time.
Shopping_AvailableOn	Product available on {date:yyyy-MM}.

The following code would be generated:

partial class ThisAssembly { public static partial class Strings { public static partial class Infrastructure { /// <summary> /// For logging only! /// => "Service {0} is required." /// </summary> public static string MissingService(object arg0) => string.Format(CultureInfo.CurrentCulture, Strings.GetResourceManager("ThisStore.Properties.Resources").GetString("MissingService"), arg0); } public static partial class Shopping { /// <summary> /// => "We cannot ship {0} to {1}." /// </summary> public static string NoShipping(object arg0, object arg1) => string.Format(CultureInfo.CurrentCulture, Strings.GetResourceManager("ThisStore.Properties.Resources").GetString("NoShipping"), arg0, arg1); /// <summary> /// => "Product is out of stock at this time." /// </summary> public static string OutOfStock => Strings.GetResourceManager("ThisStore.Properties.Resources").GetString("OutOfStock"); /// <summary> /// Product available on {date:yyyy-MM}. /// </summary> public static string AvailableOn(object date) => string.Format(CultureInfo.CurrentCulture, Strings.GetResourceManager("ThisAssemblyTests.Resources").GetString("WithNamedFormat").Replace("{date:yyyy-MM}", "{0}"), ((IFormattable)date).ToString("yyyy-MM", CultureInfo.CurrentCulture)); } } }
