Re: resource dll problem

Hi Adamus,

When you create the separate bitmaps did you make sure that the resources
links in the .RC file point to the different bitmaps/icons/cursors/whatever
files in the various languages? If you just copy the original file and
translate it the resource files will still be in the same place.

FWIW, I have the same IDs in all of my resource DLLs and the main program
finds them after I do the LoadLibrary() and AfxSetResourceHandle() calls.
Although, to be honest we use mostly the same icons for all languages.

Hi,
I have application whci load different resource dll depending on language
selected.
Everything works ok when I want to display resource like image etc in main
program,
but when I main program call dialog box, images in that dialog are not
taken from new
resource dll but from main application(in main program). In that dialog
box I have different
images for different languages in separate dlls. Stange thing though, text
from resource string
are taken properly from loaded dll.
What can cause that problem?
thanks
