I'm working on localizing an app I've written in C#. Everything seems to be working nicely, using satellite resource assemblies to translate each form's strings (as per this tutorial: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/y99d1cd3%28VS.71%29.aspx) However, the application will ultimately require quite a number of languages, which mea...

Personal code repository for further consulting

I've started as a developer a few months ago (c#/vb.net) and I am keeping a folder in my "pendrive" (not really a pendrive) of all the sourcecodes that i modify, with all problems i solve, and solutions i create (profissionally).

Resource String Location

Where is the best location to place resource strings? Does it depend on scope? Currently most of our strings are being placed at the project level, but certain strings are only needed for one form. My thoughts would be that these strings should be placed as close to their use as possible. EDIT: This is a WinForms question. I've ad...
