I try to make my application multilingual. For this I have created two resource files:

• Resource.de-DE.resx
• Resource.en-US.resx

Both are set to public and contain the same keyword and translation. I can also access the keywords in the backend -> see image. Unfortunately my program does not load the files when I change the language.

My steps:

1. set the default Resources.resx to public.
2. copied this file twice
3. renamed file to (see above)
4. keywords translation entered and checked
5. project created again
6. included on the Button-Content by:

<Button x:Name="Home_Button" Style="{DynamicResource Menuebutton}"  Content="{x:Static p:Resources.Menue_home}" Click="Home_Click"/>

7. access of the object set by:

xmlns:p="clr-namespace:VS_Launcher.Properties"

8. include in the MainWindow.xaml.cs by:

CultureInfo myCultureInfo = new CultureInfo("en-US");
CultureInfo.DefaultThreadCurrentCulture = myCultureInfo;
CultureInfo.DefaultThreadCurrentUICulture = myCultureInfo;
Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = myCultureInfo;
Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = myCultureInfo;

In another project I did the same thing. But there the solution worked. What is my error?

Resource Files Directory structure

CodePudding user response：

Are you sure the file names of alternative language resources (excluding culture-locale) are identical with default one? If the default one is Resources.resx, alternative ones must be like:

• Resources.de-DE.resx
• Resources.en-US.resx
