I have a resource entry named info_278
in the Resources.resw
file on my UWP app. I have 3 scenarios where I need to use this resource but looks like I need to duplicate this to cater to different scenarios. Scenarios are as follows.
Error message content from code
var displayErrorOnPopup = ResourceHandler.Get("info_278");
TextBlock Text property from XAML (Looks like a new entry needed as info_278.Text )
<TextBlock x:Uid="info_278" Margin="10,0,0,0" />
Button Content property from XAML (Looks like a new entry needed as info_278.Content )
<Button x:Uid="info_278" Margin="10,0,0,0" />
How do I proceed without duplicating this resource in the .resw
file?
The only way to avoid duplication is to set the string value in code-behind using ResourceLoader . Because you could direct access to the specific property of the target control. Like this:
var resourceLoader = Windows.ApplicationModel.Resources.ResourceLoader.GetForCurrentView();
this.TextBlock.Text = resourceLoader.GetString("info_278");
If you are not going to do it in the code behind, then I have to say there is no way to avoid the duplication of the resource string. You should add info_278.Text and info_278.Content for different XAML scenarios.
You could create a markup extension. I've used this in WinUI 3, but should work in UWP too.
using Microsoft.UI.Xaml.Markup;
using Windows.ApplicationModel.Resources;
namespace MyApp;
[MarkupExtensionReturnType(ReturnType = typeof(string))]
public class StringResourceExtension : MarkupExtension
{
private static readonly ResourceLoader _resourceLoader = new();
public StringResourceExtension() { }
public string Key { get; set; } = "";
protected override object ProvideValue()
{
return _resourceLoader.GetString(Key);
}
}
Then in the XAML:
...
local="using:MyApp"
...
<TextBlock Text="{local:StringResource Key=info_278}" />
<Button Content="{local:StringResource Key=info_278}" />
The Content
of Button
can be a TextBlock
:
<Button>
<TextBlock x:Uid="MyTextId" Style="{StaticResource MyTextBlockStyle}" />
</Button>
