abstract member GetIdentifier : string * string * string -> int
override this.GetIdentifier : string * string * string -> int

Parameters

name: String

The name of the desired resource.

defType: String

Optional default resource type to find, if "type/" is not included in the name. Can be null to require an explicit type.

defPackage: String

Optional default package to find, if "package:" is not included in the name. Can be null to require an explicit package.

Returns

Int32

int The associated resource identifier. Returns 0 if no such resource was found. (0 is not a valid resource ID.)

Attributes: RegisterAttribute

Remarks

Return a resource identifier for the given resource name. A fully qualified resource name is of the form "package:type/entry". The first two components (package and type) are optional if defType and defPackage, respectively, are specified here.

Note: use of this function is discouraged. It is much more efficient to retrieve resources by identifier than by name.
