Mass ResX Creator

Mass ResX Creator is a very simple application that enables you to batch compile ResX files for your VB.NET and C#.NET applications. By that I mean you can specify a whole directory and Mass ResX Creator will compile the whole of that folder's contents into a single ResX file.

Batch ResX compiling is a task that every programmer will find themselves needing to do at some point, but the standard ResX compiler that comes with Visual Studio .NET simply doesn't allow you to compile whole folders.

With Mass ResX Creator you can...

• Compile whole folders (and all of their sub folders) into a single ResX file.
• Specify a list of files and folders that you do not want to include when performing a batch compile (see screen-shot below).

It gets better...

Mass ResX Creator will automatically include a text file called 'contents' in all of your ResX files. This text file contains an index of every file inside the ResX file, and what their relative path was before the compile. Here's an example of what it looks like:

F1000:Setup\dw0061-48.ico
F1001:Setup\dw0013-48.ico
F1002:Encryption.exe
F1003:Menu Items.txt

This is a very useful feature especially if you are going to be extracting the files again at a later stage. Creating your own .NET setup applications couldn't be easier; Mass ResX Creator will literally cut hours off of your production time.

For use with VB.NET ResX files and C#.NET ResX files.
For the old VB6-style RES files, use our Mass RES Creator.
