.NET是否具有内置的多元化机制？

Question

In order to properly handle pluralisation, Qt has QObject::tr() , gettext has ngettext , Rails has a good i18n API , Cocoa has .stringsdict files . All those systems take in account the actual number (quantity) to determine the appropriate plural form for a given language.

I know about Humanizer , NGettext and PluralNet but I'm looking for a built-in equivalent in .NET. Does it exist or am I out of luck?

Answer 1

This is not exactly a built-in solution, but there's a Visual Studio extension, ReswPlus (on Visual Studio Marketplace ), that leverages PluralNet and produces methods taking a number as argument to automatically choose the correct plural form for a given localization.

Here's an excerpt from the README about pluralization :

The resources:

| Key               | Value            | Comment           |
|-------------------|------------------|-------------------|
| MinutesLeft_One   | {0} minute left  | #ReswPlusTyped[Q] |
| MinutesLeft_Other | {0} minutes left |                   |

Will automatically generate the following code:

#region MinutesLeft
/// <summary>
///   Get the pluralized version of the string similar to: {0} minute left
/// </summary>
public static string MinutesLeft(double number)
{
    return Huyn.PluralNet.ResourceLoaderExtension.GetPlural(_resourceLoader, "MinutesLeft", (decimal)number);
}
/// <summary>
///   Format the string similar to: {0} minute left
/// </summary>
public static string MinutesLeft_Format(double pluralCount)
{
    return string.Format(MinutesLeft(pluralCount), pluralCount);
}
