# Resources
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Resources are `.resx` files with string values that we use for error messages and such.
|
|
|
|
|
They live in `src\<project>\resources` folders.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
At the moment `dotnet cli` doesn't support generating C# bindings (strongly typed resource files).
|

|
|
We are using our own `Start-ResGen` to generate them.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Usually it's called as part of the regular build with
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
Start-PSBuild -ResGen
|
|
|
|
|
```

## Editing resx files
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
**Don't edit** resx files from Visual Studio.
|
|
|
|
|
It will try to create `.cs` files for you and you will get whole bunch of hard-to-understand errors.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To edit resource file, use any **plain text editor**.
|
|
|
|
|
Resource file is a simple xml, and it's easy to edit.
