ASP.NET page localization problems

[jmjacquel@solaire.com]

Hi all,

I have a localization problem in ASP.NET (ASPX) pages using VS.NET 2003.

I have a project called AGCENTRAL, which is part of a solution. The project
simply contains pages, a MyResources.resx file and a MyResources.frr.resx
file. In these two files, I have a simple string named mystr with "Hello
user" in the MyResources.resx file and mystr with "Bonjour Utilisateur" in
the MyResources.fr.resx file.

I try to access these resources using the following code :

Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture =
CultureInfo.CreateSpecificCulture("fr");
Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture =
CultureInfo.CreateSpecificCulture("fr");
ResourceManager rm = new ResourceManager("AGCENTRAL.MyResources",
Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly());
thestr=rm.GetString(resid);

When I compile the project, I correctly get the following assemblies :

bin/AGCENTRAL.DLL
bin/fr/AGCENTRAL.resoources.dll

But when the code is running, I always get the default resource value "Hello
user" instead of the correct culture resource value "Bonjour Utilisateur".

I tried to compile the resources files manually using resgen and creating
the satellite assemblies manually too using AL with the same result. I read
many samples or technical notes, doing exactly what was written with always
the same result. I am surely missing something ?!

Any help would be very appreciated !

Best regards,

Since you are calling CreateSpecificCulture with the neutral culture of "fr"
it is defaulting to a specific culture of fr-FR (French language in the
country of France). So you can either create a new resource file named
MyResources.fr-FR.resx or if you prefer to stick to the neutral french you
could change your code to:

Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture=new CultureInfo("fr");

HTH,

Thank you Michael and Yhhuang for your answers.

Michael, I've already done that without success. I've found the solution by
myself and will explain here what was wrong. In fact, every code I wrote to
solve this problem was correct as I kept each one beside and tried them
again later. As I set impersonation to true, I simply had to set correct
authorizations to the temporary ASP.NET files in the .NET folder. This way,
all my tests are now working correctly.

So, I suppose this thread will help people who are developing multi-lingual
ASP.NET application and using impersonation !

Many thanks again,
