Hmmmmm....
In my experiences, when you see -7(b5) in standard jazz is at the second
diatonic position of a minor key (or key of the moment).  There is no
resolution even though you hear tritone.

In case of classical music, I know vii-dim is a substitute of V but it
will cause parallel movement, and it will be different chord by the time
inversion starts to move things around, as I was taught....  but tritone
will resolve, I guess :-)
