Public Function CreateResource(
    resourceId As Object,

resourceId	Object	The unique resource identifier.
resourceCaption	String	The resource caption. This value is assigned to Resource.Caption property.

Resource	A new resource.

Remarks

Use the CreateResource method to create a new resource.

void CreateSampleResource() {
    Resource res = schedulerControl1.Storage.CreateResource(0, "Resource1");
    schedulerStorage.Resources.Add(res);
    schedulerControl1.GroupType = SchedulerGroupType.Resource;
}

The CreateResource method:

• Creates a new resource instance.
• Automatically generates required custom fields and adds them to the resource’s CustomFieldCollection (available via the PersistentObject.CustomFields property).

To manually add custom fields to the resource, use the PersistentObjectStorage<T>.CreateCustomFields method.

Custom Resource Factory

The CreateResource method relies on a resource factory (an object that implements the IResourceFactory interface) to generate resources. To replace the default resource factory:

1. Implement the IResourceFactory interface.
2. Call the SchedulerStorageBase.SetResourceFactory method and pass your custom factory instance as a parameter.
