I am working on an ASP.Net application that is company specific in that when users login, they login using their username, password and company id. I am trying to find the best way to allow each company to customize certain labels within the software. For instance, there is a field that we globally call "Unique Identifier". On a per company basis, they may want to rename the field to be "Employee Badge Number", "HR Id Code" or whatever every they want. I was looking at possibly extending the ResourceProvider to using a DB instead of the RESX files, however, it seems like the ResourceProvider is heavily based on culture/languages changes rather than customization.
Has anyone developed similar functionality in an application? Did you extend the ResourceProvider or go the completely custom route?
I have been searching for possible solutions all week and am coming up dry. My fall back is to just create something completely custom, but I worry about losing out of the building efficiency of the ResourceProvider.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
This sounds more like a customization / personalization issue than a localisation issue. I would not use the ResourceProvider for this.
