Hi,

I look to have futher langages in my MVC asp.net application. I finally use resources.

I created two files Main.resx and Main.fr.resx in folder Ressources->View

My website works fine on Main.resx but when I try to change on fr file, it doesn't works. To change I do this:

Thanks for your help

Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = CultureInfo.CreateSpecificCulture("fr")

Hi,

And you are doing this when ? If not done already try to move that to the BeginRequest event in global.asax.

Resources files are usually compiled. If one time you could recompile just those DLLs and deploy them again. Else you should be able to disable resx files precompilation so that you can deploy them on the server (still it will be compiled on the web server and the app restarts).

Or if it could be done at any time you could use http://blog.spoorthis.com/2019/04/26/adding-a-custom-resource-provider-for-your-asp-net-application/ to fully customize from where those resources are loaded (for example cached from database tables).
