How to Use the Localization Kit

The Localization Kit is provided as a Visual Studio 2008 solution containing resource strings that you
can translate into any language. The Visual Studio solution can be used in VS 2008, Visual C# 2008
Express Edition, and by the MSBuild command line build utility. This can be done simply by opening
the appropriate .resx file in Visual Studio’s Resource Editor and editing the name/value pairs. You
can translate as little as one line in a single .resx file or go all the way translating every line in every
.resx file for all the assemblies. It just depends on your application requirements.

The files to be translated are named with the language/locale identifier that follows Microsoft’s
conventions. For example, the English-U.S. exception strings for the LinearReferencing.resources
project are in a file called LinearReferencingExceptionStrings.en-US.resx. For more information on
language identifiers, see the

System.Globalization.CultureInfo

class in the Microsoft .NET

Framework library.
