“.resx files contain not only strings, but may also embed icons as Base64-encoded or binary data. Translating the entire file can compromise the file structure.”

Root Cause Analysis

XML Data Type Filtering

Shangyi AI can parse the XML schema of .resx files and identify the `type` attribute within `<data>` tags. The system intelligently skips all non-string types (such as System.Drawing.Bitmap) and only translates pure text resources.

Key-value pair integrity

During translation, content inside the `<value>` tag is updated, the `<comment>` tag serves as contextual reference, and the `<name>` key remains strictly unchanged to ensure correct code calls.

Final Solution Summary

The optimal tool for rapid internationalization of legacy WPF and WinForms projects.
