Question

I have an application, which works with Resources for translation. This is working great.
Now, I have a special requirement. For this, I have to load the resource-dll for another language (for example, the application starts and works with English, then I have to also to load the German-translations) and look into it for a translation.

Is there an easy-way to do this?

Answer 1

You need to load the resourcemanager and If you need the resources for an specific language you will need to ask for them using the specific culture, using:

GetObject(String, CultureInfo)

You can create the culture that you need using:

new CultureInfo(string name)

Or

CultureInfo.CreateSpecificCulture(string name)

Or

CultureInfo.GetCultureInfo(string name)

The name is the culture name: “en” English, “de” German… You can see a full list on the following link: cultures
