Usage Considerations

In most cases, it is highly recommended that you use ICaptionHelperProvider rather than the static API exposed by the CaptionHelper class. Note that the CaptionHelper static API is not supported in Backend Web API Service as well as the Reports and Dashboards modules. Additionally, if your business objects are used in Web API, dashboards, or reports, these business objects should also exclusively use ICaptionHelperProvider.

The CaptionHelper static API is required to obtain user-specific localized strings from a user Model Differences Storage. However, you can only use it in contexts where XafApplication is initialized, such as:

• XAF controllers
• Custom property editors
• Application modules
