Documentation: DTS.Viewer Properties Namespace

1. Purpose

This module contains auto-generated infrastructure code for the DTS.Viewer WPF application, providing application settings management, assembly metadata, and localized resource access. These files serve as the configuration and resource backbone for the DTS Viewer application, enabling persistent user settings and string localization through the standard .NET settings and resource mechanisms.

---

2. Public Interface

Settings (Settings.Designer.cs)

internal sealed partial class Settings : global::System.Configuration.ApplicationSettingsBase

Properties:

Signature	Description
public static Settings Default { get; }	Returns the singleton instance of the settings class, synchronized for thread-safe access.

Note: This class is internal, so it is only accessible within the DTS.Viewer assembly.

---

Resources (Resources.Designer.cs)

internal class Resources

Properties:

Signature	Description
internal static global::System.Resources.ResourceManager ResourceManager { get; }	Returns a cached ResourceManager instance for looking up localized strings. Lazily initialized on first access.
internal static global::System.Globalization.CultureInfo Culture { get; set; }	Gets or sets the current thread's CurrentUICulture for resource lookups using this strongly-typed resource class.

Constructor:

Signature	Description
internal Resources()	Parameterless constructor. Marked with SuppressMessage for CA1811:AvoidUncalledPrivateCode.

Note: This class is internal, so it is only accessible within the DTS.Viewer assembly.

3. Invariants

• Singleton Pattern: Settings.Default always returns the same synchronized instance; it is never null.
• Thread Safety: The Settings instance returned by Default is created via ApplicationSettingsBase.Synchronized(), guaranteeing thread-safe access.
• Lazy Initialization: Resources.ResourceManager is lazily initialized on first access and cached in the private resourceMan field.
• Resource Location: The ResourceManager is configured to look for resources in the resource path "DTS.Viewer.Properties.Resources" within the current assembly.
• COM Visibility: All types in this assembly are not visible to COM components (ComVisible(false)).
• Auto-generation: Both Settings.Designer.cs and Resources.Designer.cs are tool-generated; manual modifications will be overwritten on regeneration.

---

4. Dependencies

This module depends on:

• System.Configuration.ApplicationSettingsBase — Base class for application settings persistence
• System.Resources.ResourceManager — Resource lookup mechanism
• System.Globalization.CultureInfo — Culture-specific resource handling
• System.Reflection — Assembly metadata attributes
• System.Runtime.InteropServices — COM visibility attributes
• System.Windows — WPF theme resource location (ResourceDictionaryLocation enum)

What depends on this module:

Cannot be determined from source alone. These are infrastructure classes typically consumed throughout the application for settings persistence and resource localization. The actual consumers would be in other source files not provided here.

5. Gotchas

1. Auto-generated files: Both Settings.Designer.cs and Resources.Designer.cs contain headers explicitly warning that manual changes will be lost if the code is regenerated. Developers should modify the corresponding .settings and .resx files instead.

2. Inconsistent copyright attribution: The AssemblyCompany attribute lists "Diversified Technical Systems, Inc. (DTS)" while AssemblyCopyright lists "Copyright © Microsoft 2016". This appears to be a copy-paste artifact from a project template and may need correction.

3. Empty AssemblyDescription: The description attribute is empty, which may affect how the assembly appears in certain viewers or deployment tools.

4. No actual settings defined: The Settings class contains no user-scoped or application-scoped settings properties beyond the default instance accessor. This suggests either the application doesn't persist settings, or settings are defined elsewhere (possibly in a .settings file that would generate additional properties).

5. No resource strings exposed: The Resources class exposes no actual string properties. This indicates either no localized resources exist, or they would be generated from a .resx file that is not reflected in the current generated code.
