I need to be able to change the resource file used by an ASP.Net Page based on some value other than Culture/Language/Region. The purpopse is to simply configure properties on the page based on a city or site name or other criteria. I do not want to change language or culture/region.
View 1 RepliesIn our web application we need to keep various company's settings. For eg "DiamondProdRefIDCaption","Shippingpickup","ZipCodeCaption","DefaultCountry","AllowToEditInvoice", etcThese settings are different for various companies and are placed in web.config as key-value pair.Initially, we have tried do simplify this process by adding a company_settings table in the DB so as to allow us to add companies on the fly. However, this method makes it very difficult to add a new setting
<%$Resources:DiamondProdRefIDCaption%>

We are migrating the VB6 applications into VB.NET (2008). They implemented the globalization in the Vb6 application by storing the english strings and corresponding langauage text (italian,spanish or french) in Database(SQL). Now we need to create a resource file in VB.NET(2008) for each language. Instead of creating resource file manually we want to write an application which will create resource file dynamically for each language and copy the english string and correspoding language text value from database into resource file.
SLNo Language English Value
1 English Name Name
2 Italian Name Nome
3 Spanish Name nombre
In my project i add a reference of one dll and it has some resource files(.resources). Also my project has some resource files with the same language name(Spanish, french and Germany). Also i think we can't add the two resource file for one language. Now how can i mangage both the resource files?
View 1 Repliesneed to bind a resource file using system culture info. Say for example, if my system culture is Spanish(Spain) "es-ES" then i have to look for "es-ES" resource file to bind. If it is not there then i have to bind with default resource file ('en-US"). How to do this?

These settings are different for various companies and are placed in web.config as key-value pair.
Initially, we have tried do simplify this process by adding a company_settings table in the DB so as to allow us to add companies on the fly. However, this method makes it very difficult to add a new setting since it would require us to add a column to the company_settings table and thus would require code changes as well as stored procedure changes.
Now we have added separate global resource files for each company's settings. But, whenever we want to add new company to our website, we need to add a new resource file for that company. Adding a resource file requires compilation, and thus the application needs to be restarted. I was wondering if there is a way that we can add a new resource file dynamically at run-time.
Or are resource files not the right thing to use here? Is there a better method of tackling this issue?
I'm developing two applications. One is server application and one more is client application and i'm implementing Localization in both the applications. I have used 7 language resource files in both the application. I need to add the reference of server application in my client application to access some global methods and all. After i'm adding the resource file in the application if i build the application it creates folder for each resource file with language culture code (Spanish -> es-ES, French -> fr-FR) under Bin directory.
Similarly if i add the reference of server application into client application then the resource file dll of server application will be added under corresponding langauge culture folder(es-ES,fr-FR) in the Bin directory. But i don't want to create any resource file dll for the application under Bin directory and aslo i need to put all the resource files inside the application only.
I have a web application project with a App_GlobalReousrces folder which contains a *.resx file that I would like to access (read) from a separate class library project.
What's the best way to deal with this one?
Saving resource file at runtime -Access denied error

View 1 RepliesI have a CMS that allows an administrator to add/create pages for his website.
When a page is created a SiteMapNode is added to the web.sitemap file with the an url , title and resourceKey.
Now I wish to add a resourcekey to the appropriate web.sitemap.resx file(located in App_GlobalResources).
I have tried many different ways :
- using XMLDocument load/save => says I don't have access to write to that resource file
- ResourceReader says the source stream is not valid.
I am new to this forum and want to know how can i change the page language.
For example English -> Hindi..
I have localized application where user can choose her preferred language in dropdown control. After OnSelectedIndexChanged event there is postback and CurrentThread.CurrentCulture should be set to what user chooses.
Login.aspx.cs
public partial class Login : BasePage
{
protected void LanguageDrop_changed(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
var lang = LanguageDropDown.SelectedValue;
Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = new CultureInfo(lang);
Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = new CultureInfo(lang);
}
}
However, it does not work correct because LanguageDrop_click event fires after InitializeCulture so some default culture is initialized, controls are localized to default language and then CurrentThread.CurrentCulture is set. So user have to refresh page once more to see them in chosen language.
UPDATE: I found partial answer: [URL] He retrieves language dropdown value in InitializeCulture() event from Form collection
I have a class library and was to add a resource file to it to support both English and Spanish. Any tips as how I can do this? The language will be dictated by the user visiting the site. Would like to have to only load each resource file once and cache or set in static variable and avoid any overheads.
View 2 RepliesWhat I want to do is to use the default web resource inside asp.net. For example, If I create a web page with a simple Wizard control and 4 WizardStep ( Start,Step,Finish and Complete) it create a translation of navigation button with the culture of application.
But, for example if i want to create a custom FinishNavigationTemplate I can't (or I don't know how) use the default asp.net transaltion.
How can I use the default asp.net translation (or web resource) for my custom template?

I keep getting a " System.InvalidOperationException: The resource class for this page was not found.

I tried iisreset /stop and /start.
I have a multilanguage application and I use resource files (.resx). I hired a person to make the translation. My question is, am I supposed to give him the resource files in order to make the translation and how he will open the resource files? Obviously, he doesn't have a copy of Visual Studio! Is there any tool that I can give him in order to work with the resource files?
View 2 RepliesI need to create my first (and simple) .net 4 web application that needs to be viewed in English, French and Italian. I've created and tested a sample web application that works fine with implicit and explicit localization set via web browser language preferences.
Now I'd like to add a simple Combo Box in the master page or in the login page to let the user choose the preferred language and would like the site to change its language based on this. I do not know how to start and to accomplish this task.
i have three master pages and some contents pages in my project.
in content page i have wrote below script:
[Code]....
And i have a language flags in my master page. so i have created image button for language flag to perform on click action. where On click of language flag (polish) i like to change the content (English) of my page as per the selected flag click.
hence i have wrote in master page:
<asp:ImageButton ID="ImageButton1" runat="server" ImageUrl="../common/images/pol.gif" AlternateText="Polish" />
And in code behind --- ImageButton1_Click
Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = CultureInfo.CreateSpecificCulture("pl-PL")
Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = New CultureInfo("pl-PL")
Response.Write(Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture)
Dim geturl As String
geturl = Request.Url.ToString()
Response.Redirect(geturl)
here the geturl is print with "pl-PL" but the page content is printed with English language.
I want to change page content also as per flag seletion.
