A multiple-language resource file is a resource file that supports more than one language simultaneously. This often implies the ability to handle more than one script or character set. Most existing Windows-based programs, even localized ones, contain resources for only one language. Win32 supports the ability to store multiple-language versions of a given resource in a single executable or DLL. This makes it possible to render a program's user interface at the time of start-up in whatever language corresponds to the user's default locale if resources for that language are available. |
