I am evaluting Sisulizer and have a question about NOT performing a binary localization.  I want sisulizer to ether generate the proper resource file or use the existing one if it exists.

What we want is multilingual source which I can do by hand using a resource file with multiple string tables, but when I load this into Sisulizer it appears to default to a binary localization and generates an executable for each configured language.

I have read the help file and it shows that there is supposed to be a multilingual option in the properties for the project, but my properties only show the path selections.

I am using Sisulizer 2008 Build 289
VB6 Source was in tow configurations, one with no resource file and the other had a resource file with all translations completed for English, Chinese Trad, and Chinese Simp.

Hi,

If you have a DLL as source you will always get a DLL in the output. If you have a DLL with with a resource Sisulizer can create a DLLwith a multilnguage resource table. The DLL should be in e.g.C/C++ format (not a VB6 DLL which is actually a COM-Object). For standrad DLLs you will find the needed output options under Project - Edit Source.

It sounds like you want to localize rc files. VB6 only store res files which are the compiled variation. But with Visual Studio 6 you have the tools to easily get rc files from your VB6 res files. If you have a Sisulizer project based on your rc files you can easily import other rs in other languages to it. Sisulizer will only read one language from a multi-language rc because it needs exactly one original language to operate.

Hope this helps

Markus
