Answer 1

you need to refer to your namespace:

@GeneralResxNamespace.General.Hello

You can do this in an easier way by adding namespace to /Views/Web.config file In section with namespaces add section below:

<add namespace="*YourProjectNamespace*.*ResourcesNamespace*.Resources" />

Then you can use resources without namespace, like in the example:

General.Hello

To access value from resoure file in view

Add this name space

@using System

Then display the value like this

@ResourceFile.Address  (ResouceFile is the name of the ResouceFile)

This method is used when evironment culture thread is used.

Answer 3

Try this,

@Resources.General.Hello

syntax: Resources.[ResourceName].[Property]
