I’m trying to translate a project with Visual Studio 2013 (Snes9x emulator). I have no experience with the theme, but following the instructions of the package, I understood the resources and libraries needed and where to put folders, indicate paths, etc, and I was able to compile with all the original features like zlib support, libpng, etc.
But I can’t translate menus and dialogs; if I do this directly - that is, I open . rc via code or viewer and translate - it gives error RC2144: PRIMARY LANGUAGE ID not a number when compiling the program.
To make it clearer:
If I translate "&File", "Recent &Games" and others, ends up in compilation error.
It is "right" or indicated to proceed with the translation in this way, and the errors are being caused by another reason?
I saw that I can duplicate each resource with "Insert Resource Copy", indicating the language and a conditional. If this is the way to my if, it is possible to use a conditional to compile the program with these features in en?
Note: although similar answers already exist, think before negativizing my question as duplicated because it is similar to Internationalization using ASP.Net MVC, for example. I have read and (it seems to me) that my case is different, because I ALREADY HAVE . rc ready, I am not starting the project from scratch.
I’m sorry if the doubt is trivial; as I said, my experience with VS is almost nil.
The inclusion of
#include <windows.h>at the beginning of the file . rc solved the error. The menu was translated as shown and the dialogs, by the file wlanguage. h– Daniel Lemes
