Sorry for the delay Jan - you must have figured it out by now, but if not, you can manually load resources by either:

1. manually locate and load the DLL with LoadFrom, then use a resourceManager on that, as in
string p = Application.StartupPath;
Assembly c = Assembly.LoadFrom(p + @"\cs\LoadResourcesManually.resources.dll");
System.Resources.ResourceManager rm = new System.Resources.ResourceManager("LoadResourcesManually.Form1.cs", c);
string txt = rm.GetString("label1.Text");
note that in this case you don't need to set a UICulture because you're loading the DLL containing resources manually

2. do what the Windows Forms' code-behind does and use the ComponentResourceManager
System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = new System.Globalization.CultureInfo("cs");
System.ComponentModel.ComponentResourceManager resources = new System.ComponentModel.ComponentResourceManager(typeof(Form1));
string txt = resources.GetString("label1.Text");

3. use the "old" way
System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = new System.Globalization.CultureInfo("cs");
System.Resources.ResourceManager rm = new System.Resources.ResourceManager(typeof(Form1));
string txt = rm.GetString("label1.Text");

| Hi Aldo,
| thanks for answer.
|
| I need to read localized strings. The dll project contains embedded
| resource.resx with English texts and resource.cs.resx with Czech ones. Build
| creates localized *.resources.dll in subfolder "cs".
|
| I try to load strings in the program like this:
| System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = new
| System.Globalization.CultureInfo("cs");
| System.Resources.ResourceManager resourceManager = new
| System.Resources.ResourceManager("namespace.resource",
| this.GetType().Assembly);
| string txt = resourceManager.GetString("stringID");
|
| FUSLOGVW shows that the resource manager searches for the cs resource dll in
| subforlers of the main application, not at the dll location.
|
| Should I do it in different way ?
|
| Regards,
| Jan
