C# - Can One Local .resx String Reference Another Local .resx String
Jun 18, 2010
I am trying to determine if it is possible to add a concatenated string to one of my local .resx files. This example should clarify:
Let's say I have a simple ASP.NET webpage composed of (1) a label whose text is an important keyword (2) an input with required field validation and (3) a button that causes validation to occur:
Now, inside the resource file for this page, we want to localize the strings for the page's controls. However, for our error message, we want to use the literal name of the input's label. This is were my question is.
PSEUDOCODE: myPage.resx
(1) lblMyInput.Text = "Name"
(2) rfvMyInput.ErrorMessage = "The " + lblMyInput.Text + " field may not be left blank."
(3) btnSubmit.Text = "Submit/Validate"
Is there any way to pull off this type of concatenation of one resource file's string into another string within the same file?
For my translations I'm making use of embedded .resx files. Some of these translations I wish to override with another .resx file, which is not embedded (ex. ~/App_Localresources/translations.en-US.resx).
The purpose of this is that after the application is compiled and deployed, a user could change the .resx file manually to override some of the embedded translations.
Is there a way to use the normal ResourceManager for this? (in .NET 4)
I'm contributing on an I18N project and there's a call to serialize our *.resx files as JSON objects (for whatever reason).
What I'm wondering is:
Is there a way to get a list of all of the valid keys for a given *.resx file so that we could use HttpContext.GetGlobalResourceObject to grab the tokens? If that won't work, has anyone come up with a clever solution that does?
I have a form where users can store some data for archived documents. All documents are ONLY in PDF format.
There are 2 things I would like to do:
1. there is a "file path" text box on the form. I would like to open a "browse file dialog" box when user clicks the textbox and then the user browses for the file (file is on the users local machine) and selects it. The full file path should be saved to the textbox as string (e.g. "c:archive2010document11122011.pdf"). Also I would like to "limit" the file browser dialog to only show PDF format files...
2. add a code behind command to open the file from the saved path+name (see 1.) in the user's default PDF viewer (Acrobat or Foxit)

i am trying to use a compact db in my web site, all works well with a absolute address to the file "c:mydirmydb.sdf"
but i dont want to use a absolute address for deployment reasons. i want to use somthing like |datadirectory to find the file.
This is a connection string for a entity model. somthing like < add name="MyEntities" connectionString="metadata=res://*/Entity.csdl|res://*/Entity.ssdl|res://*/Entity.msl;provider=System.Data.SqlServerCe.3.5;provider connection string="Data Source=|DataDirectory|mydb.sdf;Password=xxxxxxxx;Persist Security Info=True"" providerName="System.Data.EntityClient" />
I have created a webpage called server.aspx and the related local resource file called server.aspx.resx. In the resourcefile I defined the message "{0} is required." with the key Error.
I am writing a web app for work. The users who are using this app will not be using the same connection string- for example, we have about 40 customers whose data resides in their respective database. The goal of this app is to be able to query the database for a given customer without having to go in and modify the web.config connection string (obviously, because that will change the connection string globally across users- I want the users to be able to have their own local connection string to be used by the app). is this possible?
Is it possible to connect to a SQL Server Express 2008 database in ASP.NET with a server name of (local) like "server=(local);integrated security=SSPI;database=DBNAME"? I'm working with another developer on a project and it's getting annoying having to have 2 different version of web.config because he is using SQL Server 2008 and (local) works, but I can't seem to get it to work with SQL Server 2008 Express locally. The database is located on the same computer as the .NET code in case that matters.
I have a page that has been working for sometime and now getting this error..
String was not recognized as a valid Boolean.
Im was working on a How-To document of the pages for our VP and now i cant get to page 2 to continue the document.
I have recently added 2 new radiobuttonlists(rel and relst) and im sure its one of them thats causing the issue. But sicne i cant debug not sure which one is failing. Here is my insert code and the error is occuring on the Line 376:
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
The fields for the radiobuttons are all setup as BIT in SQL. They all have default values of 0. They are all setup NOT TO ALLOW NULLS.
I am trying to display a local .html file in a web page. The file uses javascript to display some information about my phone. In the executable, I am retrieving two values out of the registry. I would like to pass these values in a query string (I think that is the correct terminology). Something like file://\Program Files\TestTest.html?type=newtype. I have attempted this with using webbrowser.navigate, but that is giving an unhandled exception when it tries to pass the URI string. Obviously, I have no experience with this and am using the wrong method. There has to be a simple way to open a new webpage in a form and pass it this type of string.
how to implement such a function? I have been attempting to implement this with Visual C# using the .net CF for Windows Mobile.
When you use ASP.NET web site (instead of web application model) and add reference to an assembly from local folder, Visual Studio, it seems, understands that this local assembly is also in GAC and so does NOT copy this assembly to bin folder (as it does with non-GAC assemblies), but simply adds new record in web.config file.
Why such a behaviour? Is it possible to force copy to bin folder (I need this since .dll is not on target environment)? I can add assembly to bin folder as file and it will work, but in this case bin folder contents will be in source control, which is not good.
When I run the application using the Web Developer it works fine. However when I run it using local IIS I get the following error:

I created a website using VS2010. When I run the website using built-in web server, everything works fine. The website recognizes javascript and aurigma uploader. When I publish the website to local folder and tried to access using IIS 5.1 on local pc, the java scipt files did not work. I was getting yellow triangle sign at the bottom of the page indicating the object is expected. I tried to look online but i could not find any answer. I have included jquery and javascript file in the header section of master
There is a hyperlink to a local file...for instance....C:/text.txt. This is not possible, because ASP.net does not allow links to local files. But, links to files on network drives such as W:/test.txt are working ok. how does the browser know which drive letter is local,and which is networked? How does it know that C: is local or D: is local etc, and that W: is a network drive?
on VWD 2005 this code works fine, but on 2008 it says I haven't created an instance of the object. I want to convert the object connString (a connection string) into a string.
'This acceses the virtual directory web.config file for connection strings 'We have to convert the object to a connection string Dim rootWebConfig As System.Configuration.Configuration rootWebConfig = System.Web.Configuration.WebConfigurationManager.OpenWebConfiguration("/VirtualDirec") Dim connString As System.Configuration.ConnectionStringSettings connString = rootWebConfig.ConnectionStrings.ConnectionStrings("ConnectString1") Dim strConnString As String = connString.ToString().......
In .Net I can use the "~/image/image.png" as a reference to a graphic in the image file in the image folder from whatever file or folder I am working with. How do i use this type of reference in a javascript where I need to reference a source file?
How do I get the smtp server address for the local machine? I want to my email address on a windows form and have the user send me an email and I need to be able to get their smtp server address programatically to do this. I tried this:

I've got MS Chart control and with a references to GAC.I found them ( C:Program FilesMicrosoft Chart ControlsAssemblies )but how to change GAC to local copy (bin) for comparability with other servers without installed MS Chart control for VS .I've tried to add dll files manually but that was a fail.It's looking like I need to config Web.Config manually.
Is there any way to compile the .resx values directly into the DLL so that I can deploy the app without the .resx file and not have to edit any of the existing code?I ask this because I am porting an existing app to a DotNetNuke module and DotNetNuke does not allow .resx files, so I am looking for a workaround.
I don't want to get into a discussion about separation of concerns and all that. I just want to know how to use Resources (ResourceManager)? to write out a .resx value using a dynamic key for an entry in a App_GlobalResources file.
