VALUE "FileDescription", "SomeUser\'s FooBar Project"
All good so far. I expected Microsoft's resource compiler to escape it, since it's a valid C escape sequence.
However, it doesn't seem to do so, and it just inserts \' as-is, making the description in the properties:
SomeUser\'s FooBar Project
I also tried running rc.exe manually on the resource file, and it led to the same result. Seems like it's rc.exe's fault.
Removing this line will get rid of the escape, and will generate "SomeUser's FooBar Project". The compiler seems to have no issue with that and works properly.
Not sure if removing the escape sequence for ' will impact something else, but my guess is that it won't.
Hello and thanks for the crate!
If the package description contains the
'character, it will show up as\'in the file properties when compiling withrc.exe.Example:
This generates the following:
