XTPResourceManager() and multiple resource .DLLs.

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   We are implementing localizations using XTPResourceManager(), and it works great in most cases.  We are having a hard time figuring out how to use it to grab strings from more than one location.  for example:

p1.exe
      d1.dll
      d2.dll
      d3.dll

d1, d2, and d3.dll all contain resources.  I've created resource files (p1RU.dll, d1RU.dll,d2RU.dll,d2RU.dll), but the only way we've found so far to grab resources from d1RU.dll is via LoadLibrary() and using that instance handle to AfxSetResourceHandle().

As long as the resource is actually *IN* d1RU.dll, then that's fine, but if it isn't, we have to manually search for the resource in d1.dll.  XTPResourceManager() handles this fine, but since it's static, i don't think i can have more than one per process.

Any ideas?
