English/Spanish UI

Franklin Gray 18 August 2005 20:18:21
 I am starting a new project and will need to deliver the product with a
Spanish UI and an English UI and the ability to change the UI language
without recompiling. Is that possible and if so how, if not, what is the
best approach for a multilingual application (not to be confused with a
multi-programming language application).

 Yes this is very well supported. I'd suggest starting with:

http://msdn.microso­ft.com/library/defau­lt.asp?url=/library/­en-us/vsent7/
html/vxoriPlanningG­lobalReadyApplicatio­ns.asp

and:

 We have a Spanish UI for our web apps and just put the English/Spanish text
in a resource file and switch when needed.

You might find this three part article interesting. It's about asp but it
applies to Winforms as well.

 I've read these and it says it has the ability to read the location and
culture and use that to find the correct resource but that's the part I
don't see any examples on and don't understand. I can create resource
files and read them and apply the values to the form, but that's with me
finding the correct file myself. From what I understand, this is not the
correct way to do this because the correct way has a fallback if the file
isn't available. Anybody have example code on how to get the correct
resource file?

 Here are a few links to start with:
http://www.dasblond­e.net/CategoryView.a­spx?category=Globali­zation
This blog has a few links to articles about Globalization and
Localization you might find interesting.

http://theniceweb.c­om/LizisBlog/2005_07­_01_archive.html#d11­20629600000
This link has some blog entries about a project I recently finished on
Localization and a component that is usefull if you're using VS.NET
2003.

This thread on the DOTNET-WEB has some insights about embedding
resources for Globalization:
