I'am trying to implement internationalisation in my Xamarin application based on the MvvmCross framework. To do that, I follow the Stuart's video [this video] My problem is when i try to use one of the resource I put in my JSON file, the good string is not returned. For example, I have a JSON file ListCustomersViewModel.json in the Assets/InternationalisationResources/Text folder of my Android application which contains : { "MyTitle":"Titre de la page" } So in order to make a link with my TextView, I put this code in the AXML file ListCustomersView.axml : <TextView android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:textSize="30dp" local:MvxLang="Text MyTitle" android:
Cites Tiny · 2014-09 · Stack Overflow · on “JsonLocalisation - linked translation files in TFS”
I am using Visual Studio 2013 and TFS for source control. My solution contains json files with the translations for my app made with the mvvmcross framework. The mvvmcross JsonLocalisation plugin recommends to link the translation files [this video] from a commen location to the different projects needing them. When trying to shelve or check-in these changes, TFS complains about the translation files not being available in the platform projects.... Do any of you guys have a nice solution to that (one that doesn't include branching)? I'd really like to avoid branching because I then need to merge the files to all my platform projects on every change I make. How do you solve that using TFS?

My app runs in WPF and Android (Windows Phone later) with mvvmcross as framework. I implemented localization with JsonLocalisation like the Babel ( N21 [this video] ) example and it is working fine in Android. But whatever I try in WPF I get this message; mvx:Warning: 0,22 Language file could not be loaded for Danish.SettingsViewModel - FileNotFoundException: Unable to find resource file MyAppResources/Text/Danish/SettingsViewModel.json at Cirrious.MvvmCross.Plugins.JsonLocalisation.MvxContentJsonDictionaryTextProvider.

Cites user4071320 · 2016-05 · Stack Overflow · on “Xamarin MVVM : Work with just one JSON Folder to change language”
I want to know if we can create just one Localization folder for my application in MVVMCross (Android, IOS, Core) to change the language. In fact, i watching this video/tuto to change my Application Language with MVVMCross: [this video] I downloaded the sample too and i can see, his folder BabelResources is in his Android project, in his IOS Projet, in WPF etc... I can't create just one ressource folder and create just one JSON file with my translation (In my PCL for example) Thank for your help
Cites RadekR · 2018-04 · Stack Overflow · on “Mvvmcross: Text format binding with MvxLang”
Use Tibet binding with local:MvxBind. Let's assume, that you have: BaseViewModel.cs public abstract class BaseViewModel : MvxViewModel { public IMvxLanguageBinder TextSource { get { return new MvxLanguageBinder( Constants.GeneralNamespace, GetType().Name); } } } MainViewModel.cs inheriting from BaseViewModel, with string property Name: public string Name => "Radek"; TextProviderBuilder like in Stuart's N+1 days (no. 21) [this video] JSON translation file with "MyLabel" key { "MyLabel" : "Your name:" } Answer: Then Android layout axml file will contain binding local:MvxBind="Text Language(TextSource,'MyLabel') + ' ' + Name; Click NextCommand" I don't know how to do this with local:MvxLang but the
