    umbraco.ui is obsolete

    Hi,

    I'm trying to use some code from a blog that adds the refresh action to a menu in a custom section like this:

    menu.Items.Add<RefreshNode, ActionRefresh>(umbraco.ui.Text("actions", ActionRefresh.Instance.Alias), true);

    But Visual Studio complains that umbraco.ui is obsolete and to "use ILocalizedTextService instead which is on the ApplicationContext.Services.TextService". I tried a few things with that class but I couldn't figure it out. Can someone lend me their expertise? I'm a little unsure what VS wants me to do, and how the refactored code should look.

    Here is the blog I got the code from for context: http://www.nibble.be/?p=440

    So what this is doing is it looks in the translation file for the area actions for the key refreshNode (because ActionRefresh.Instance.Alias returns refreshNode): 

    <area alias="actions">
    <key alias="refreshNode">Reload</key>
</area>

    This can be done using the testService as well:

    var textService = ApplicationContext.Current.Services.TextService;
var refreshNodeText = textService.Localize("actions/refreshNode");
menu.Items.Add<RefreshNode, ActionRefresh>(refreshNodeText, true);

    You may need to add a using: using Umbraco.Core.Services;

    Of course it's better to keep using the constant value: 

    var refreshNodeText = textService.Localize(string.Format("actions/{0}", ActionRefresh.Instance.Alias));

    Hope that helps!
