Question

Hi friends May i know how should be the resource names while doing localization whether it's should be as Resources.en-US.resx or Resources.en.resx  which one best practice ? and why ?

Resource file names should be like this: Resources.resx(default one with english) Resources.de-DE.resx(Germany) Resources.fr-FR.resx(french) Because in runtime .dll reads key values based on current culture. Let's say current culture is de-DE means german. It will read values from german resource file with name as resource.de-DE.resx
