ResourceTable.AddStringEntry(string,string,bool?)

Parameters

Returns

void The added or updated entry, or null when it cannot be added.

Description

Adds or updates a plain string entry for a key.

Adds the key to ResourceTable.SharedData when it is new, then stores the value for this locale. When an entry already exists for the key, its value is overwritten. When isSmart is supplied it is stored on the shared key, so it applies to every locale and can turn an existing key back into a plain string; when it is omitted the key's existing flag is left unchanged. Returns null when no shared data is assigned or the key is empty.
