Xliff

ResX Resource Manager supports synchronisation between ResX and Xliff resource files.

This can be useful if your translation service accepts Xliff files as a translation source.

You can also complement or replace the Multilingual App Toolkit (MAT)

Configuration

You have to enable this feature in the configuration tab of RXRM:

How it works

  • When this feature is enabled, synchronisation runs only after you have opened the ResX Resource Manager window at least once.

  • When you open a solution, translated strings of all ResX files are updated from their corresponding Xliff value.

  • When you edit a localized string, both ResX and Xliff values are updated. The translation state of the Xliff entry is updated according to the change.

  • When you update a string in an Xliff file, using an external editor, the corresponding ResX entry is updated.
