Re: Resources assemblys and csc.exe

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Thanks Richard.

Effectively, I had to generate my .resources files using ResGen.exe (or
CFResGen.exe for compact applications) and to link these files in my
assembly using AL.exe
It works fine!!

Example:
CFResGen /compile A.resx B.resx
A.resources and B.resources were generated
AL /out:MyProject.dll /embed:A.resources,MyProject.A.resources
/embed:B.resources,MyProject.B.resources
MyProject.dll was created

Note that you need to add your project's name in the logical name of your
..resources files if you want to retrieve your resources at the running time.
