Read string from .resx file in C#

Question

How can I read a string from a .resx file in C#?

Answer 1

This example is from the MSDN page on ResourceManager.GetString():

// Create a resource manager to retrieve resources.
ResourceManager rm = new ResourceManager("items", Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly());

// Retrieve the value of the string resource named "welcome".
// The resource manager will retrieve the value of the  
// localized resource using the caller's current culture setting.
String str = rm.GetString("welcome");
