This is a question about creating localized resources for VB projects.
I can easily add resource strings to the file resources.resx. To localize these strings, I need to create a localized version of the resource file, for example resources.de.resx for German.
I actually created a localized resource file by hand in the "My Project" directory and tried to added it to the project (via "add existing item"). To my surprise, it copied the file down into the main project directory.
Normally I would keep original resx file and the localized resx file in the same directory.
Am I missing something, or is the resource support in "My Project" not thought through with regard to localization?
How to create AssemblyInfo.vb, Resources.resx and Application.myapp in vb.net 2005? I recently see these things come along with vb.net sample code everywhere. Suppose I try to create new project and I want the AssemblyInfo.vb, Resources.resx and Application.myapp appear under "My Project", how can I do that?
I have a system.resx resources file that is used in a SubmitClick method
Protected Sub SubmitClick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) (...) If (... AndAlso ...) Then SetError(Resources.system.groupNoAdminTran) End If End Sub
My problem is that no matter how I try to unit test this, the test will fail when the SetError is hit with a:"Could not load file or assembly 'App_GlobalResources' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified."
Because I need to get all the characters of the alphabet OF AN ARBITRARY (variable) LANGUAGE, and that in the correct ordering sequence.
How can I do that without knowing the alphabet of every possible culture/language? System.Gobalization.Cultureinfo for example has information on date format, and a sorting method, and codepage info. But not info on the alphabet itselfs. Forthermore 'A' to 'Z' ordering iterating won't do, because German for example has characters such as ÄÖÜ, which are after 'Z' in the codepage numbering, but follow after aou when sorting.
Can I somehow use the codepages to get all the characters, and sort them somehow ? By 'all the characters' I mean all letters, including numbers, but not punctuation marks. And possibly only upper XOR lowercase.
I have a winform application written with vb2010.I changed the "Language" property of a winform of my application to german, only for testing purpose. I built the application and in my indebug folder it was created a new de folder with the localized resource file "appname.resources.dll". Then I set back the "Language" property to (Default) and "Localizable" to FALSE and built again the application, but the de folder with its appname.resources.dll were created again. I have controlled each form in my application, the My Project setting too,nothing points to any other culture. I deleted the whole debug folder, but after each build, I get always the de subfolder.I cannot understand what is changed in my application now: why does the compiler create a localized resource if I set back the form properties?I repeated the same for a new culture (afrikaans), to discover any changes in the form properties: I found nothing that could help me, but now I get two subfolders.: de and af
Would it be possible to add a .exe to my resources and when the user clicks a button on the form it will create a directory ( C:My apps ).then add the .exe from my resources and launch the .exe from that folder.
Don't know how to copy images to resources file on VB and create background change button. I am trying to add my graphics folder to the resources folder in my project but I get some kind of error. That's the easy question. Now, I have a panel container in which I want to show an image that will be change about 5 times when I click on my background change button. What codes do I need to use for this?

I've been looking for a tuto to use resx but I only found some where the resx depends on the localization(and the language of the browser).How can I tell my app to use a certain resx when a certain variable has a certain value.For instance I'd like to use default.aspx.de.resx when xyz=1.
Edit:I ve heard there's an issue to override InitializeCulture.

How could I access to Master.LanguageID in this class?
Im using "Visual Basic 2010 Express", and for now all i did was learning how does it work and some basic codes.
I click twice in "MyApplication" in the "Solution Explorer", and then go to "Resources". I added 3 pictures that i need and in Properties>Persistence i chose "Embedded in .resx"
Then i search in Windows Explorer my Resources.resx file and its size is now increased by those three pictures.
Then i create a picturebox named "picturebox1" and call that picture[code]...
I have a resx file called Resources1.resx and this file is location in the class library Test.WebControls, this is how i am trying to get the values from the resx file using vb.net.
[Code]...
But I keep getting an error "Could not find any resources appropriate for the specified culture or the neutral culture. Make sure "Resource1.resx.resources" was correctly embedded or linked into assembly "Test.WebControls" at compile time, or that all the satellite assemblies required are loadable and fully signed." The resx file is embedded as resource as well.
I had a program going along swimmingly until I tried to change the name for form1 to something more meaningful. Now It is all messed up and I am getting the dreaded resx error. Is there any hope in salvaging this?
If I look in resources.designer.vb in solution explorer, I see the code for an icon called circleIcon:Public ReadOnly Property circleIcon() As System.Drawing.Icon..[code] End Property However, if I look in resources.resx or in the project properties resource tab, the icon is not there.If I try to add it using the resource tab (add resource), it says it is already there.How do I get the resx and designer files to match.How do I remove this circleIcon properly if it is not in the resx file.
I am working on a vb6 to vb.net migration project using VS 3.5. In my application, there is .resx file and some icons are there in this file (eg: icoIN,icoUS etc). On click of a checked listbox (which is filled with country names), the particular country flag should be displayed on a picture box control. The image of country flag is taken from the .resx file.I tried with the following code.[code]
I have a graphic image in a project's resx file that I would like to use in another project. Unfortunately, I can not locate the original file, an animated gif. Is there any way to export or otherwise extract the graphic image from one .resx file for use in another?
How to migrate .RESX file when changing .NET Framework... I was changing the .NET framework from 4.0 to 3.5 (because of an incompatbility we discovered in a third party dll) and everything went fine except some .RESX file got messed up. I was starting to fix them manually but is there some tool I can use for this?
I have two .resx files in my project. One is called Labels.resx , the other is called Labels.fr.resx. The first is meant to be English the second is French. Right now they each only have one item, a string with the key "label1". The values are in English and French.The issue is that even when I try to access the resource as French just hard coding the culture in an attempt to get this working:
'hard code the culture as French Dim c As System.Globalization.CultureInfo = System.Globalization.CultureInfo.GetCultureInfo("fr")
I've a very strange problem with the localization and the default language resx file.I can add a string entry in the file with no problem. After moving or resizing any of the object in the form, the default resx file, resets itself and then my entry is deleted.Has anyone had the same problem??Unfortunately I can't attach a test project I made, 'cause of some security policies of my network. This is the list of operations you have to do, in order to replicate the problem:create a new windows form project;add any object (ie button) and then change its text property to "Example";set the form's property Localizable = Trueselect one of the language in the form's Language property;change again the text property to "Example 2";get back to the "(default)" entry of the language property;open the Form1.resx file then add a string entry, finally save it;try to move or resize the object into the form and then open again the Form1.resx file. You'll se the entry just for a while and then the file resets itself.
I'm working on a VB.Net project and using SVN. I noticed that every time I open my main form, Visual studio slightly modifies my .resx file, which means that I keep having to re-commit it.url...

I have a form in my VB>NET project (2010) with some ImageList. Those images are embedded in the list with a form resource in a .resx file asdata name="xxxx.ImageStream" mimetype="application/x-microsoft.net.object.binary.base64When I tried to build/run my project I get:
I deleted the images that I thought I will not need but the program would not run. Error 1 Invalid Resx file.

When I was using ASP.NET I used to build a page and then run Generate Local Resource and it would build a resx page with all my strings. Is there a way to do this with VB.NET?
