[RANT] .Net ResourceManager - non-nerds please ignore

Thursday, January 06, 2005 1:33 AM
I hate resource (.resx/.resources) handling in .Net... It seems that every single person who's managed to make it work, completely forgets what parts were difficult, hence skipping past it IN EACH AND EVERY FRIGGIN' SAMPLE ON THE WEB!!!

Look at this MS example - in a WinForms scenario (with which some of us are still on the noob stage), what exactly is the assembly name, where does a resource file end up after compilation and so on. In the above example, the reference to the resource file is "items". That's it. No more, no less. Useless piece of s***!!!!!!
