  Change Resource Files Path

  Jan 27, 2014 02:19 AM|a ch|LINK

  Hi,

  I have a set of resource files [Default.resx, Account.resx, Index.resx, Shared.resx...]

  I need to have at least 5 language resource files for each one of those and it's gonna make more than 20 resource files.

  I want to divide each culture in a separate folder [fa-IR, de-DE, ar-SA, ...]

  But the resource cultures MUST be next to the default resource file (Default.resx and Default.fa-IR.resx).

  How can I separate them?

  Thanks...

  If this is for organizing production version, then you can 

  - use global resources vs. local resources (all files will be located in App_GlobalResources)
  - compiling your resources so that they are deployed as DLLs rather than compiled at runtime. To do this you have to move your resources our of the standard App_GlobalResources. Compiled DLLs will be located in /bin/{culture}/ http://odetocode.com/Blogs/scott/archive/2009/07/16/resource-files-and-asp-net-mvc-projects.aspx 

  for "organizing" the project files you should probably use a custom ResourceProviderFactory http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.web.compilation.resourceproviderfactory.createlocalresourceprovider(v=vs.110).aspx
