AW: [xliff-profiles] resgen tool

Dear 
Tony,

 

this 
is a resource compiler/decompiler. Both formats are equivalant, but .resx 
is human readable.  .resources are part of the binary. This tool will not 
help extract text only. But for resx files interestingly enough all data 
elements are good candiates which do not have a type attribute. Expections are 
are data elements with names starting with >> like Name, Type, Parent, 
ZOrder. These elements are used to store structural information 
only.

 

Best 
regards from Bonn,

Florian

Here's a link to MS's RESGEN tool - the webpage 
  states that it's a tool for generating text files from RESX and .RESOURCES 
  files,  and converting them back.  However,  it's not clear yet 
  to me if this could be useful for extracting ONLY string resources from these 
  files,  and then putting the translated content back into the res 
  file.  I'll need to have a deeper look into this later.
