Can WiX be set to automatically include all generated satellite assemblies? The goal is to have a single English language MSI that installs an application with localized strings available for ~10 languages. I found this existing SO quetsion: How do I include Satellite Assemblies(Localized Resources) in an MSI built with WiX? However that solution suggests that new component and directory definitions needs to be manually added for each culture variant. Is that the only way, or can WiX somehow automatically learn about each language from the Visual Studio project definitions? (Running VS2010 and

I need to enter some French chars in eclipse. How do I configure eclipse to enter French? I do have all the fonts that come with default eclipse packaging. VonC Preference / General / Workspace / Text file encoding In my configuration, I see Cp1252 (probably set after my OS current setup) and have no problem with any French character. UTF-8 is a more general setting which will accommodate any OS language setup. As noted in this blog entry , this should be UTF-8 by default, for encoding unlimited number of universal (Unicode) code points instead of a specific encoding grid like Cp1252. (see The

I want to be able to rescue I18n::MissingTranslationData like so: begin value = I18n.t('some.key.that.does.not.exist') puts value return value if value rescue I18n::MissingTranslationData puts "Kaboom!" end I tried the above, but it doesn't seem to go into the rescue block. I just see, on my console (because of puts ): translation missing: some.key.that.does.not.exist . I never see Kaboom! . How do I get this to work? IMO, it's pretty strange but in the current version of i18n (0.5.0) you should pass an exception that you want to rescue: require 'i18n' begin value = I18n.translate('some.key

I read a tutorial in Django site but I don't understand how to use the set_language() function. For example, I have a demo follow as: index.html {% trans "Hello World." %} <form action="/i18n/setlang/" method="post"> {% csrf_token %} <input name="next" type="hidden" value="/next/page/" /> <select name="language"> {% get_language_info_list for LANGUAGES as languages %} {% for language in languages %} <option value="{{ language.code }}">{{ language.name_local }} ({{ language.code}})</option> {% endfor %} </select> <input type="submit" value="Go" /> </form> urls.py urlpatterns = patterns('', (r'

Localization/Globalization is pretty easy in Visual Studio using RESX files. I just add a resource file, like MyTextSnippets.resx , add key/value pairs, and create copies for every language I'd like to support like MyTextSnippets.de.resx , MyTextSnippets.fr.resx etc. Now think of longer texts, where the String resource editor grid doesn't work very well. No problem, just choose "Add Resource | Add New Text File" from the designer, and you can edit as many text files as you want. Example: I add MyTemplates.resx , and to this RESX I add a file called SomeEmailTemplate.txt . Works fine so far,
