Does it make sense if I create my own resource.xml to store things like strings/labels/messages that will be used in the web application?
or are their drawbacks and its better if I just use the Global resources .resx files that are 'built-in' ?
How to view .resx resource files, which are under app_globalresources.
We have a project with lot of resource files.
how can I write through the database into Resource.resx?
View 5 RepliesI am working on a new project using ASP.NET 4 and I have a few Resource Files.However, I also have resources on a SQL database. I would like to somehow create a common resource provider.I would like to be able to use:
Resources.Labels.Email > This would take the resource Email from file Labels.
Resources.Database("Email") > This would take the resource with name "Email" from the database.When I get a resource from the database I always return the Name, Content and MimeType.To avoid multiple requests I could even have another method like:
Resources.Database(new List<String> { "Email", "Address" }) > This would take the resources with name "Email" and "Address" from the database in one request.I am not sure if this would be possible ... Basically I would need to have something like:
Resources.Database.Load(new List<String> { "Email", "Address" }); And then use: Resources.Database("Email");
And even have one more:Resources.Config("Email") > This would take the resource with name "Email" from th web.config file. Always a String.I have all the code with communication with the database and web.config.The main problem is really how to create this resource interface.

Is it possible to put resource files (.resx) within subfolders inside App_GlobalResources? For example:
/App_GlobalResources/someresources/myfile.resx
/App_GlobalResources/someresources/myfile.fr-fr.resx
/App_GlobalResources/othereresources/otherfile.resx
/App_GlobalResources/othereresources/otherfile.fr-fr.resx
Or, are all the .resx files placed directly inside App_GlobalResources? If it is possible to use subfolders, how do you programmatically access resources within subfolders?

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

View 1 RepliesIs there a way to use DataAnnotations for validation, particulary in MVC, while relying on a custom resource provider ?
I built a custom SQL based resource provider for the asp.net side of my MVC application. At this point I'm down in the model section and want to use DataAnnotations for validation. Something like ...
[code]....
My Composite control implements IScriptControl interface.
ScriptReferences java script file does the client-side work, there I want to load a html file inside iFrame.
The Html file is an embedded resource:
([assembly: System.Web.UI.WebResource("Control.Resources.list.htm", "text/html")])
I pass the path of the html to the javascript file via descriptor property:
IEnumerable<ScriptDescriptor> IScriptControl.GetScriptDescriptors()
{
descriptor.AddProperty("iframe", iframe);
return new ScriptDescriptor[] { descriptor };
}
Where iframe is a string that contains the path from the webresource.
Now, in this html file I want to display few images that must be also loaded from resource.
The Question is how to access the resources from this html file?
Do I have to pass every image path as descriptor property?
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

View 3 RepliesIn ASP.NET I'd like to create a link which points to a specific Uri and send this link in an email to a user, for instance something like http://www.BlaBla.com/CustomerPortal/Order/9876. I can create the second part of the Uri /CustomerPortal/Order/9876 dynamically in code-behind. My question is: How can I create the base Uri http://www.BlaBla.com without hardcoding it in my application? Basically I want to have something like:
http://localhost:1234/CustomerPortal/Order/9876 (on my development machine)
http://testserver/CustomerPortal/Order/9876 (on an internal test server)

I have written a smal HtmlHelper, but the thing is that I whould require some javascript functionallity to this helper. So I thought "Whouldnt it be great to actually let the framework add the javascript <script>-tag to the head-element of my Html document once I use this helper?"
So what I whould need/like to do is:
1. Add the Javascript-file as a resource to the dll, since this will allow me to always have the javascript file together with my HtmlHelper, so I dont need to have a seperate file for the js.
2. Add a <script src="{my js-resource}" /> to the head-element of my html document as soon as I use my helper...this is kind of the tricky part..since Im not realy sure about how to do this in MVC...if its even possible..the best sulotion whould be if I didnt need to add any other code in any other file then just in my HtmlHelper...(no code needed to be added in my views or controls) To put it all kind of simple...from what I recall..I want to more or less register a start up script, as its called in WebForms..but in MVC..(I saw an example of how to do it ClientScriptManager, but that whould require me to add extra code on my views and layout/masterpage-files...which simply doesnt do it for me if there is any other way)
I want to make a textbox with a specific style, within this style a set of images as background parts, how can i attach these images to the custom control as whenever i take the .dll file and add it to the toolbar the images do not appear.

View 1 RepliesI have 2 asp.net mvc2 projects in a solution. One is normal site for visitors use and the other one is admin back-end which is going to be separated by sub-domains like [URL] and [URL] The scenario is like admin will add a new item(e.g product) with image and [URL] will use that image to display product. Both application are sharing one db. so there is no problem to get the item details that is coming from the db. but for item image that has been uploaded in admin directory([URL]- any idea how to get it from general domain [URL]to display? Also what is the best way of separating the resources like image files or even css or js files across sites and how to access them?
