Extract String to Resource
In This Article
Extracts the string at the caret into a resource file.
#Availability
Available from the context menu or via shortcuts:
- when the caret is on a string. This string shouldn’t be assigned to a constant, or be an attribute value.
#Notes
- This refactoring automatically suggests the name for the newly created resource string. You can then modify this name in the Resources browser, and the code will be updated automatically.
#Example
string MyString = │"My text";
Dim MyString As String = │"My text"
Result:
string MyString = Properties.Resources1.│MyStringValue;
Dim MyString As String = My.Resources.Resources.│MyStringValue
