C# - Fastest way to get resource string from assembly

I really don't know/have the answer, knowledge to find a resource value using a key from a resx file in a assembly using c#.(or may be i am ignorant).

What would be the fastest code, way i can retrieve string values or values using a key from a resource file which is embedded as resource in a assembly. I am storing friendly messages for exceptions in the resource file and would like to use them when required.

Does a static class exist for this purpose?

Are there open source mature projects i can use for this?

Solution 
  • Assembly assembly = this.GetType().Assembly;
ResourceManager resourceManager = new ResourceManager("Resources.Strings", assembly);
string myString = resourceManager.GetString("value");
