VS 2005 Cab project doesnt include form localization resource dlls

[indiekiduk]

I found a bug in VS 2005. If you choose Localized=true on your form and
then make some resx files e.g. Form1.de.resx and change all the strings
to German ones as you usually do - when you deploy the project to a pda
it works perfectly and creates a de folder on the device with the
german resource dll in the folder. However if you make a CAB project
and choose the app project to be included, when you build the CAB it
does not include any of the localization dlls in it. Does anyone know
if this is really a bug or is there a setting somewhere I need to
enable?

Thanks,

You will have to add those to the CAB project in addition to the primary
project output. Right click on the CAB project title, select Add,
Project Output and select "Localized Resources". That will add the
resource dll files to your CAB file.
