Locating Resource Directories
Alternate language DLLs must be present on all application servers. PeopleTools development environments in a three-tier installation also must have the alternate language DLLs present.
Microsoft Windows application servers and PeopleTools development environment workstations use Microsoft Windows resources from the base language and alternate language DLLs. Unix/Linux application servers, however, store resources for all languages and modules in a single file, PSAPPSERV.RES. This file contains the same resources as the alternate language DLLs.
The following table shows the content of the directories that are used to support translated resources. These directories are distributed with PeopleTools and contain user-customizable resource files and other supporting files that are needed to compile, bind, name, and copy alternate language resource DLLs.

\SRC\RES |
The root directory for alternate language resource DLLs. The files in this directory include some batch files that are used in constructing alternate language DLLs. |
|
\SRC\RES\ENG |
A prototypical alternate language development directory for the English language. One of these directories exists for each alternate language. Copy this directory for each new alternate language that you create. |
|
\SRC\RES\ENG\INC |
Holds header (.H) files that are common to several DLLs and various icons and bitmaps. |

\SRC\RES\ENG\xxxxx |
This directory contains directories for most PeopleTools DLL and EXE files found in \SRC\BIN. These directories contain the following file types:
