Default Satellite fallback for strings, main assembly fallback for binary - 09-12-2006 , 09:23 AM






Greetings,

To assist the the translation portion of internationalization I have
created a utility application that creates a resources.dll from an
Excel spreadsheet. This utility is used by our end users. So that
users can take full responsibility of the translation I would like to
use UltimateResourceFallbackLocation.Satellite for the "default"
location for string resources. Then the end user can manage the
resource.dlls and translations are decoupled from the main assembly.

Unfortunately, UltimateResourceFallbackLocation.Satellite also changes
the location for binary resources (icons for forms). These binary
resources I would like to keep in the main assembly. Does anyone know
if this is possible?

Thanks in advance,
MattH

Hi Matt,
It is not possible to do this while using the automatic localization
feature of Windows Forms or using the same resource file. One way to work
around it would be to hardcode the binary resources into your code instead
of adding them as resources, however this would require some manual work on
your part and might not be as convenient.
Hope this answers your question,
Marin Millar [MSFT]
