Shared resource file not available in asp.net core 3.1

See original GitHub issue

Describe the bug

Resources referenced through SharedResources via @inject IStringLocalizer<SharedResources> SharedResources does not work using .net core sdk version 3.1.100

To Reproduce

Project to reproduce: https://www.dropbox.com/s/ez38k7jz9zt3ev8/WebApplication.zip?dl=0 Provided attached repro project, build project using dotnet build *.sln.

Run project and navigate to page. When referencing .net core 3.0.101 in global.json, SharedResources can be used in Index.cshtml (“Value from shared resources” is displayed on top)

When changing to sdk 3.1.100 (or removing global.json) with installed .net core sdk 3.1, values from SharedResources is not displayed correctly (“ValueFromSharedResources” is displayed instead).

After debugging, found the reason. If class SharedResource.cs and SharedResource.*.resx in same folder, the namespace will be error in compiled dll xxx.lang.dll.

Show as below.

//here is the incorrect namesapce.
.mresource public IdentityHub.PosSharedResource.zh.resources
{
  // Offset: 0x00000000 Length: 0x000009D0
}
.mresource public IdentityHub.Resources.Views.FcAccount.LoggedOut.zh.resources
{
  // Offset: 0x000009D8 Length: 0x00000238
}
.mresource public IdentityHub.Resources.Views.FcAccount.Shared.Welcome.zh.resources
{
  // Offset: 0x00000C18 Length: 0x0000022C
}

@emedbo So, you can move SharedResource.cs to another folder.

As part of the 3.1 release, the .NET SDK changed how namespaces for resource files are calculated. Let’s look at the sample shared by @emedbo:

Views.Home.Index.nb-NO.resx gets embedded as $AssemblyName.Resources.Views.Home.Index. However, SharedResources.nb-NO.resx is treated as a DependentUpon item on SharedResources and picks it’s namespace which is WebApplication. This obviously doesn’t work with the options.ResourcesPath = "Resources" setting.

There’s few options here:

a) Move the SharedResources file as noted https://github.com/dotnet/aspnetcore/issues/17733#issuecomment-564449779 b) Change the namespace of SharedResources to match the expected namespace for the resource. In this case, it would be WebApplication.Resources. c) You can configure the SDK to use pre-3.1 behavior by setting <EmbeddedResourceUseDependentUponConvention>false</EmbeddedResourceUseDependentUponConvention> in your project file.
