Localization

To localize RadWebCam 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 RadWebCamLocalizationProvider 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 RadWebCam Strings

        public class EnglishWebCamLocalizationProvider : RadWebCamLocalizationProvider
        {
            public override string GetLocalizedString(string id)
            {
                switch (id)
                {
                    case RadWebCamStringId.NoCamera:
                        return "No camera detected.";
                    case RadWebCamStringId.CameraBusy:
                        return "The camera is unavailable.";
                    case RadWebCamStringId.CameraAccessDenied:
                        return "Access to the camera is denied.";
                    case RadWebCamStringId.TakeSnapshot:
                        return "Take Snapshot";

To apply the custom localization provider, instantiate and assign it to the current localization provider:

Assigning the Current Localization Provider

RadWebCamLocalizationProvider.CurrentProvider = new EnglishWebCamLocalizationProvider();        

RadWebCamLocalizationProvider.CurrentProvider = New EnglishWebCamLocalizationProvider()
