Internationalization and Localization Using Microsoft .NET ReviewOur company purchased this book so that we could localize a C# .net project. This book offered very few technical details about important parts of the process.
I found that the author wastes a great deal of space explaining concepts such as "The History of XML" and the basics of localization.
The most glaring omission is the lack of source code for a "functional" globalized application that demonstrates the concepts of satellite assemblies. The lack of source code is a glaring omission on the part of the publisher. In the end, I learned more from the WorldCalc SDK example than I did from this book.
Much of the book rehashes information available in the Visual Studio help documents.
I wish this book would have covered assembly tools such as ildasm. I, also, could not find mention of the all important Assembly Binding Log Viewer (FUSLOGVW.EXE).
This book was rushed to the market by the publisher. Hopefully, the topic will be addressed by another author who has more current information specific to actually working with .NETInternationalization and Localization Using Microsoft .NET Overview"Internationalization and Localization Using Microsoft .NET" is intended to be a comprehensive discussion of how to localize code using Visual Studio .NET. Author Nick Symonds is an experienced developer and project manager of Windows applications intended for use worldwide. Symmonds knows the advantages of localization in the design stage and the disadvantages of localizing a project after the fact. Both methods of localizing code are discussed in this book. VS .NET has quite a few tools available for the developer to aid in the localization process. These tools are discussed in depth, and the pros and cons of each are presented to the reader.The book is unique, in that it covers both C# and VB .NET - all examples are in both programming languages. This gives the reader the unique perspective of being able to compare these two programming languages when writing code in .NET. Some of the core topics covered are:1. The Globalization and Resources namespaces, which relate directly to localization2. Resource files and how they are used in .NET3. Visual and command line tools that aid in localization4. In-depth discussion of design and implementation of world-ready programsSymmonds has included in this book a comprehensive example of a resource editor and takes readers through writing this editor in both C# and VB .NET. This project is not only useful as a product in itself, but is also instructive in how to write fairly complicated code in both .NET languages.
