Input Resource Files

Input resource files are XML files that contain message strings, such as error messages and warnings, as well as menu text and user interface text.

Strings can be customized for different language versions of a product or modified for the same language versions.

The input resource files are located in a directory named msgsdk in the product installation directory. They conform to the rules specified in the schema file named CCLMessageFile.xsd, located in the same directory. The schema defines the elements and attributes that are used by the resource files.

We recommend that you familiarize yourself with the structure of the input resource files before you start customizing the messages and user interface text.

The files contain the following elements: stringTable, component, section, string, and param. Some of the attributes that affect the customization process are: errorCode, translate, and usage.
