The .resx resource file format consists of XML entries, which specify objects and strings inside XML tags. LRM supports .resx files. See https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ekyft91f(v=vs.100).aspx .

Locale File Extensions

  • The resx files follow this naming convention: filename.<language>.resx or filename.<language>-<country>.resx. For example, resources.resx or resources.en.resx for a base file, resources.fr.resx or resources.fr-FR.resx, etc.
  • If you can, avoid duplicate file names. Duplications incur more prep kits than necessary.

What is resx files encoding?

.Net resx files must be UTF-8 encoded, as per the resx schema, Hence, on-boarding resx resource files with LRM must specify the UTF-8 encoding:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<root>
    <xsd:schema id="root" xmlns="" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" 
xmlns:msdata="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-msdata">
<xsd:element name="data">
     <xsd:complexType>
           <xsd:sequence>
                <xsd:element name="value" type="xsd:string" minOccurs="0"
                    msdata:Ordinal="2" />
            </xsd:sequence>
                <xsd:attribute name="name" type="xsd:string" />
                <xsd:attribute name="type" type="xsd:string" />
                <xsd:attribute name="mimetype" type="xsd:string" />
      </xsd:complexType>
</xsd:element>

Example of .resx Files or a file extension that uses the xml parser type and the ResxParser.xml definition

xml parser type using ResxParser.xml format definition

valid resx syntax

Files that use the xml parser and the ResxParser.xml format definition are expected to have valid resx syntax

.resx uses the xml parser type

When defining a project containing LRM Standard .resx resource files, there is no need to define a <parser-type> as the xml parser will always be used along with the ResxParser.xml format definition.

unique file extension needs to define xml parser type and copy over the ResxParser.xml format definition

If a unique file extension is a valid resx file, then:

  • In the Project definition xml file, <parser-type> should be xml
  • After creating the project
    • Copy over the ResxParser.xml format definition located in ../lrm-server-<x.x>/samples/XmlParserExamples into the ../L10nStreamlining/<group>/projects/<project>/config folder
    • Rename file ResxParser.xml to xmlParser.xml
