Question

I want to create a winform component that contains a collection of other elements, similar to TabControl (contains TabPage) or ListView (Contains columns).

The subItems have a Name property, and I want that name to be used in the generated code to access the subitems. Like in TabControl, I can name each tabpage using the editor.

Finally I want the subItems to be localized. Once again, like in TabControl, where I can localize each TabPage’s text using the editor.

The problems I have is
1) how to get the Name property being used for code generation?
2) how to get the sub items properly localized?

Any good article to read?

Thanks.

Ok I found the solution. The subitems must inherit from Component as well.
