Localization


What are the guidelines for localizing of the domain model ?

I have noticed the Localize property on Classes and Values Properties, but I haven't figured out how it works?

Thanks!

Mike,

We have changed to an entirely new localization scheme in the new bits that will release later this summer.

In the June CTP (and thereafter) there are various 'resources' you can provide for elements of your DSL definition, such as descriptions and display names on domain classes, domain properties, domain roles. These get generated into a .resx file, and are then used in various parts of the UI in the generated designer. You can localize your designer by defining satellite DLL's overriding these resources for different locales.

In our V1 release (due end of August / beginning of September), the completed Dsl Designer makes it easy to identify these porperties, which are grouped under the category 'Resources' in the properties window.

Hope that helps,

Stuart
