resx

My company uses a combination of some database tables, a web page front end and an "export" application to handle our string resources in our web sites. The export application used to work just fine when we used VS2008, but since switching to VS2010 the resources now have a designer.cs file "beneath" them in the solution explorer. The problem is that the "export" application only generates the .resx files and not the underlying designer.cs files. So, is there a way to not have those designer.cs files, or alternatively some way to automatically re-generate (or even some command the export

I'm currently using .resx files to manage my server side resources for .NET. the application that I am dealing with also allows developers to plugin JavaScript into various event handlers for client side validation, etc.. What is the best way for me to localize my JavaScript messages and strings? Ideally, I would like to store the strings in the .resx files to keep them with the rest of the localized resources.

What compelling reasons exist for using them? Resource files give you an easy way to localize/internationalize your .net applications by automatically determining which language resx file to use based on the user's locale. To add more languages, simply add another translated resource file. Resource files give you a central location to store your strings, files and scripts and refer to them in a strongly-typed manner (so the compile will break if you reference them improperly). Resource files can be compiled into satellite assemblies, making it easy to change up the resources in a production

I have a .resx file that contains name-value pairs (both strings). Now I want to modify the values in certain name-value pairs programmatically using C#. How can I achieve that? There's a whole namespace for resource management: System.Resources. Check out the ResourceManager class, as well as ResXResourceReader and ResXResourceWriter. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.resources.aspx I managed to lay my hands on a very old debug method that I used to use at one point when I was testing some resource related stuff. This should do the trick for you. public static void
