Setup & Deploy Project Localization with Custom Actions
Hopefully there's an easy answer for this...
I'm using Visual Studio 2017 with the basic Setup and Deployment Project template. I have Setup and Deployment projects where the "Localization" property is set to different languages (English, French, Spanish, etc.). These projects have a C# WinForm custom action that kicks off at install and allows users to set some of the configuration settings of the program it runs.
My question is this: is there anyway to detect the value of the Localization property in the custom action app? For example, can it be passed through the CustomActionData property (I'm already doing this with some MSI properties)? Or is there some way to programmatically determine it in the C# code of the custom action app?
