Localization

To localize strings for other languages, translation of the strings is essential. However, you only need to localize strings that are displayed to the end user. You do not need to localize strings used for functional logic, such as if blocks or switch blocks. CCF uses the standard localization procedure explained in Visual Studio Help.

The initialization strings in the DDA XML bindings of hosted applications reference controls based on the MSAA notions. You can reference UI components through different ways such as by using Control ID by using Control text. However, you should ensure that you reference controls using language-independent methods, such as Control ID. Some referencing methods such as referencing using Control text are not language-independent.
