How to read operating system's current culture (regional settings)

[adi]

Hi
I'm using .NET Framework 1.1
My application needs to read the system's language settings.
How to do this?

Thanks.

Hi Adi,

Use System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCultu re. This is the
culture your thread is running in.
System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICul ture contains the
culture used for your resources files.

Thanks

To be more explicit, I need to read the settings that I can found in
Control Panel / Regional and Language Options / Regional Options
property tab.

Is there at least an API function to call?

All this is contained inside the CultureInfo.DateTimeFormat,
CultureInfo.NumberFormat etc.

You can also read system settings directly using the SystemInformation
class or tap into WMI using the classes in System.Management /
System.Diagnostics
