Examples

This example is based on scenario 10 of the Application resources and localization sample. See the sample for the complete solution.

private void Scenario10Button_Show_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
    Button b = sender as Button;
    if (b != null)
    {
        // Use a cloned context for this scenario so that qualifier values set
        // in this scenario don't impact behavior in other scenarios that
        // use a default context for the view (crossover effects between
        // the scenarios will not be expected).
        var context = ResourceContext.GetForCurrentView().Clone();

        var selectedLanguage = Scenario10ComboBox_Language.SelectedValue;
        var selectedScale = Scenario10ComboBox_Scale.SelectedValue;
        var selectedContrast = Scenario10ComboBox_Contrast.SelectedValue;
        var selectedHomeRegion = Scenario10ComboBox_HomeRegion.SelectedValue;

        if (selectedLanguage != null)
        {
            context.QualifierValues["language"] = selectedLanguage.ToString();
        }

        int j = 0;
        foreach (var qualifier in candidate.Qualifiers)

            var qualifierName = qualifier.QualifierName;
            var qualifierValue = qualifier.QualifierValue;
            outText += "        Qualifer: " + qualifierName + ": " + qualifierValue + "\r\n";
            outText += "        Matching: IsMatch (" + qualifier.IsMatch.ToString() + ")  " + "IsDefault (" + qualifier.IsDefault.ToString() + ")" + "\r\n";

        }
        i++;
    }

    this.Scenario10TextBlock.Text += outText + "\r\n";
}

Properties

IsDefault	Indicates whether this qualifier should be considered as a default match when no match is found.
IsMatch	Indicates whether a given qualifier for a given candidate matched the context when a named resource is resolved to a candidate for some given context.
QualifierName	The name of the qualifier.
QualifierValue	The value of the qualifier.
Score	A score that indicates how well the qualifier matched the context against which it was resolved.
