    • how does it work for final user?

    Posted by LuisMX on Mon 02 of Aug, 2010 14:45 GMT

    Hi all, Im interested in this tool, but just a simple question:

    The final user got the .exe and if he wants to add a new languaje, then just create a new .XML and store it into a folder, and the .exe will recognize the new languaje without a rebuild ???

    TIA.

    Hi,

    sorry for the delay. I have been on vacation for the last two weeks.

    The .NET framework will support this, but not using the XML file directly. You have to compile the XML file (.resx file) into a resource DLL and copy that to the target system.

    If you always let the framework select the locale there should be no problem. If you show a dialog to select the language, then that dialog must check for which DLLs are actually present (rather than using a fixed list of languages). The language selection dialog which the Add-In can add to your project works like this.

    Phil
