    Embedded resource path

    Hi!

    I have an application with localization support. When building the application, language resource files are placed in their own directories, like "de/program.resources.dll". I was wondering if it is possible to have these files in programs startup path instead? Maybe there are some settings that I didn't know of?

    Thanks.

    Thats depending on how the localization is built. If you are using the standard localization you need to have it where it is. As it is obviously a german file, it is in a subdirectory ./de of the startup path isn't it ? Basically if you want to use dlls you can do it as it is or you may use a Localization class and override this way that behaviour and putting it whereelse you want to have it. I have mine in
    c:\WINDOWDS\RESOURCES\GLOBALISATION\appname\resourcesname.dll
    because I like to have fixed pathes. I'm using a Filebased Resourcemanager for that.
    Code:
    ResourceManager.CreateFileBasedResourceManager
