Shared resource localization is not working - asp.net-core

Question

I am working on shared resource localization in Asp .Net Core 3.1. For that I created resource directory and created SharedResources.cs file.
Root/Resources/SharedResources.cs
Root/Resources/SharedResources.en.resx
I injected code in controller.
public AccountController(IStringLocalizer<SharedResources> sharedLocalizer)
{
_sharedLocalizer = sharedLocalizer;
}
public IActionResult Login(LoginViewModel model)
{
if(loginSuccess == true)
{
return RedirectToAction("Dashboard", "Dashboard");
}
TempData["Error"] = _sharedLocalizer["Error"];
return View(model);
In SharedResources.en.resx
Key : Error
Value : Invalid User
In SharedResources.cs
namespace RootName
public class SharedResources
{
}
It displays Error and it should display Invalid User. Where am I wrong?

For asp.net core 3.x,you need to create SharedResources.cs in your root folder and create SharedResources.en.resx in root/Resources folder like below:
Startup.cs:
public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)
{
services.AddControllersWithViews();
services.AddLocalization(o =>
{
// We will put our translations in a folder called Resources
o.ResourcesPath = "Resources";
});
services.Configure<RequestLocalizationOptions>(options =>
{
var supportedCultures = new[]
{
new CultureInfo("en"),
new CultureInfo("de"),
};
options.DefaultRequestCulture = new RequestCulture("en");
options.SupportedCultures = supportedCultures;
options.SupportedUICultures = supportedCultures;
});
}
// This method gets called by the runtime. Use this method to configure the HTTP request pipeline.
public void Configure(IApplicationBuilder app, IWebHostEnvironment env)
{
if (env.IsDevelopment())
{
app.UseDeveloperExceptionPage();
}
else
{
app.UseExceptionHandler("/Home/Error");
// The default HSTS value is 30 days. You may want to change this for production scenarios, see https://aka.ms/aspnetcore-hsts.
app.UseHsts();
}
app.UseHttpsRedirection();
app.UseStaticFiles();
app.UseRouting();
var localizationOptions = app.ApplicationServices.GetService<IOptions<RequestLocalizationOptions>>().Value;
app.UseRequestLocalization(localizationOptions);
app.UseAuthorization();
app.UseEndpoints(endpoints =>
{
endpoints.MapControllerRoute(
name: "default",
pattern: "{controller=Home}/{action=Index}/{id?}");
});
}
