Building Blocks

We’re using Telerik components in some of our software at RemoteX. Telerik components are localized using resx-files, but we don’t use resx-files so we need the localization to work with our system.

So this is how to do it:

First we create a ResourceManager that will handle our localization

class LocalizedResourceManager : ResourceManager
{
  public override string GetString(string name)
  {
    return String.Concat("Client.Telerik.", name).Localize();
  }
}

And then, in an appropriate location we set the default Resource Manager for localization:

LocalizationManager.DefaultResourceManager = new LocalizedResourceManager();

There you have it, short post, but someone pointed out to me that people would like to know these things before they purchase component libraries.
