• Visual C++ 2005 Resource Editor trashes non-English languages when you edit any dialog

  I have an application that has resources in 11 languages, including Chinese (CHS), Hungarian and Polish. These three are especially challenging because they use a non-English code page - Chinese uses 936 and Hungarian and Polish use 1250 (English and western-European languages use 1252). I am not using Unicode but rather just single byte characters sets for all languages except Chinese which requires MBCS (two byte characters). MFC and the resource editor in Studio 6 and Studio 2003 worked fine with this setup. Now in Studio 2005 anytime I try to edit a dialog resource in the resource editor and save the result the saved file ha ...Show All

So, my problem is that I can not move the file until process that is creating the file ends. This is my solution: Dim Success As Boolean While Success = False Try Success = True File.Move(sourcePath, destPath) Catch ex As IOException If ex.Message <> "The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process." ...Show All
