Microsoft.Data.Tools.StringResourceTool 2.0.0

String Resource Tool creates C# wrapper classes for managed string resources. The app developer creates a .strings file to declare the list of strings.
Each line includes the name of the string and its list of parameters.
For example:
ConnectionFailure(server) = Failed to connect to server {0}.
The above line creates the following entry in the wrapper class:
[System.Runtime.CompilerServices.CompilerGeneratedAttribute()]
internal class StringConnectionInfo
{
   public static string ConnectionFailure(string server)
   {
       return Keys.GetString(Keys.ConnectionFailure, server);
   }
}
The package includes a targets file for incorporating srgen into an msbuild-based development project and a sample strings file.

There is a newer version of this package available.

Documentation

This package is no longer packaged as a dotnet tool. We will update the sample usage on github.com.
Instead of invoking slngen, invoke dotnet against the appropriate version of the DLL and use a PackageReference.
