Localization
To localize RadTaskDialog to display control text and messages in a specific language, :
All required classes for localization are defined in Telerik.WinControls.UI.Localization namespace.
Start by creating a descendant of the RadTaskDialogLocalizationProvider class.
Override the GetLocalizedString(string id) method and provide a translation for the label and user messages. If a translation is not provided, the default value will be returned. This behavior is guaranteed by the call of the base GetLocalizedString method in the default clause of the switch statement in the example.
Below is a sample implementation of an English localization provider:
Localizing Task Dialog
public class EnglishRadTaskDialogLocalizationProvider : RadTaskDialogLocalizationProvider
{
public override string GetLocalizedString(string id)
{
switch (id)
{
case RadTaskDialogStringId.ExpanderCollapsedButtonText: return "See details";
case RadTaskDialogStringId.ExpanderExpandedButtonText: return "Hide details";
case RadTaskDialogStringId.ContinueButtonText: return "Continue";
case RadTaskDialogStringId.TryAgainButtonText: return "TryAgain";
case RadTaskDialogStringId.HelpButtonText: return "Help";
case RadTaskDialogStringId.CloseButtonText: return "Close";
case RadTaskDialogStringId.NoButtonText: return "No";
case RadTaskDialogStringId.YesButtonText: return "Yes";
case RadTaskDialogStringId.RetryButtonText: return "Retry";
case RadTaskDialogStringId.AbortButtonText: return "Abort";
case RadTaskDialogStringId.IgnoreButtonText: return "Ignore";
case RadTaskDialogStringId.OKButtonText: return "OKdfgdf";
case RadTaskDialogStringId.CancelButtonText: return "Cancel";
default: return base.GetLocalizedString(id);
}
}
}
Public Class EnglishRadTaskDialogLocalizationProvider
Inherits RadTaskDialogLocalizationProvider
Public Overrides Function GetLocalizedString(ByVal id As String) As String
Select Case id
Case RadTaskDialogStringId.ExpanderCollapsedButtonText
Return "See details"
Case RadTaskDialogStringId.ExpanderExpandedButtonText
Return "Hide details"
Case RadTaskDialogStringId.ContinueButtonText
Return "Continue"
Case RadTaskDialogStringId.TryAgainButtonText
Return "TryAgain"
Case RadTaskDialogStringId.HelpButtonText
Return "Help"
Case RadTaskDialogStringId.CloseButtonText
Return "Close"
Case RadTaskDialogStringId.NoButtonText
Return "No"
Case RadTaskDialogStringId.YesButtonText
Return "Yes"
Case RadTaskDialogStringId.RetryButtonText
Return "Retry"
Case RadTaskDialogStringId.AbortButtonText
Return "Abort"
Case RadTaskDialogStringId.IgnoreButtonText
Return "Ignore"
Case RadTaskDialogStringId.OKButtonText
Return "OK"
Case RadTaskDialogStringId.CancelButtonText
Return "Cancel"
Case Else
Return MyBase.GetLocalizedString(id)
End Select
End Function
End Class
To apply the custom localization provider, instantiate and assign it to the current localization provider:
Assigning the Current Localization Provider
RadTaskDialogLocalizationProvider.CurrentProvider = new EnglishRadTaskDialogLocalizationProvider();
RadTaskDialogLocalizationProvider.CurrentProvider = New EnglishRadTaskDialogLocalizationProvider()
