UltimateResourceFallbackLocation Enumeration
Specifies the assembly for the ResourceManager class to use to retrieve neutral resources by using the Packaging and Deploying Resources.
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
Use the UltimateResourceFallbackLocation enumeration with the NeutralResourcesLanguageAttribute constructor to specify whether the ResourceManager class is to retrieve neutral fallback resources from the main application assembly (the default), or from a satellite assembly.
The following code example displays the neutral language, fallback location, and fallback culture for a resource manager that is created for the current user interface culture or a culture specified on the command line.
