ResourceManager.GetResourceSet Method

[ This article is for Windows Phone 8 developers. If you’re developing for Windows 10, see the latest documentation. ]

Gets the ResourceSet for a particular culture.

Namespace:  System.Resources
Assembly:  mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)

Syntax

Public Overridable Function GetResourceSet ( _
    culture As CultureInfo, _
    createIfNotExists As Boolean, _
    tryParents As Boolean _
) As ResourceSet
public virtual ResourceSet GetResourceSet(
    CultureInfo culture,
    bool createIfNotExists,
    bool tryParents
)

Parameters

Return Value

Type: System.Resources..::.ResourceSet
The specified resource set.

Exceptions

Exception Condition
ArgumentNullException

The culture parameter is nullNothingnullptra null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).

Remarks

The ResourceSet that is returned represents the resources localized for the specified culture. If the resources have not been localized for that culture and tryParents is true, GetResourceSet falls back to a parent culture (this is accomplished using CultureInfo 's Parent property), and the parent ResourceSet is returned. Otherwise, nullNothingnullptra null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) is returned.

The parameters let you control whether the ResourceSet is created if it hasn't been loaded yet, and whether parent CultureInfo objects should be loaded as well for resource inheritance.

Note

The GetResourceSet method is thread-safe.
