如何将资源文件中的原始 this.text 与覆盖的文本进行比较

Question

I have a windows form. Where the title will be overwritten every time a piece of code is hit. The title will be by default in resx file of the form until it is overwritten.

Form1.resX

 <data name="$this.Text" xml:space="preserve">
    <value>Report</value>
  </data>

Form2.cs

public void Report2()
{
Form1 frm = new Form1();
frm.Text="Report2"
//Some code
}

public void Report3()
{
Form1 frm = new Form1();
frm.Text="Report3"
//Some code
}

Here the this.Text gets overwritten when Report2() and Report3() executes

In Form1.cs

private void Report_ColumnClick(Object eventSender, ColumnClickEventArgs eventArgs)
{
if(this.Text!="Report")
{
//Some code
}
}

So in Form1.cs i am hard coding the resx original value to compare with an overwritten value. Is there anyway i can do it dynamically instead of hard coding.

I'm not sure if this question is the same as yours?

According to that post it should be as simple as:

ResourceManager rm = new System.Resources.ResourceManager(typeof(Form1));
string formText = rm.GetString("Form1.Text");

OR:

If that doesn't work you can try reading the information from the manifest embedded in the assembly.

Get the embedded resource names using reflection typeof(Form1).Assembly.GetManifestResourceNames(); this will give you a list on names if there are any.

use the correct name to extract the embedded stream.

var resourceStream = typeof(Form1).Assembly.GetManifestResourceStream("Your_NamesPace_Here.Form1.resources");
using (System.Resources.ResourceReader resReader = new ResourceReader(resourceStream))
{
  var dictEnumerator = resReader.GetEnumerator();
  while (dictEnumerator.MoveNext())
  {
    var ent = dictEnumerator.Entry;
    //ent will be a key:value pair, so use it like this                     
    if (ent.Key as string  == "$this.Text")
    {
      string originalFormName = ent.Value as string;
    }
  }
}
