Language Identifiers and Locales (Windows CE 5.0)

Send Feedback

The NLS tables describe the language identifiers, or locale identifiers (LCIDs), available to an OS design. An LCID consists of a primary language identifier, a sublanguage identifier, and a sort identifier. Platform Builder uses the LCIDs in your NLS table to determine which locales to support in your OS design. You can modify the NLS table to add or remove locale information.

You can use the MAKELCID macro in your applications to create an LCID.

Use the locale identifier to set the LOCALE environment variable for a localized build of the OS.

The following table shows the worldwide locales.
