Hello,
 
Some resources are loaded in MFC sources and we can't replace them.
 
For AFX_IDS_IDLEMESSAGE  you can override
void CFrameWnd::GetMessageString(UINT nID, CString& rMessage) const
(see MFC sources)
and instead AfxLoadString(nID, lpsz)    use XTPResourceManager()->LoadString.
it will load string from XMl/DLL.

Ok, but that would mean you will not be able to use the xml language files in conjunction with MFC resource strings if you want a fully localized application?
Wouldn't it be nice if CXTPResourceManagerXML and related stuff could extract MFC strings into a temporary resource dll (i.e. created in the user's temp folder when e.g. XTPResourceManager()->SetResourceManager is called) and automatically use AfxSetResourceHandle on that?
But maybe that's beyond the scope of the toolkit?

Hi,
AFX_IDS_IDLEMESSAGE/ID_CONTEXT_HELP   are MFC strings. you need switch MFC resource handlers - AfxSetResourceHandle

On a related note, while checking out the ScribbleMultiLang sample project, I noticed that the AFX_IDS_IDLEMESSAGE (57345) and ID_CONTEXT_HELP (57669) strings do not use the translated versions, regardless of whether the xml or dll resource is used.
I did change the project to use the Unicode charset rather than multibyte, if that could have made an impact.
I was using VS2005 with SP1 installed when building the project.

Is this a general feature, or is it something specific to that particular sample application?

Regards,
Arne I

Hi,
 
Instead XML you can use DLL files. Check folder ScribbleMultiLang\Translations\Source  - you need create rc file for each resource and build corresponded dll. After you can load this dll with
 
XTPResourceManager()->SetResourceFile("PathToDll.dll");

HI Oleg,

Can please let me know how to create multilanguage resource for a new application. I saw the Scribble sample but was unable to duplicate the same in my sample application.

A step by step procedure for creating the multilangauge resource would be really helpfull.

Thanks
Sharath

Call AfxOleInit before you use XML.
