Invariant mode

Determines whether a .NET Core app runs in globalization-invariant mode without access to culture-specific data and behavior.
If you omit this setting, the app runs with access to cultural data. This is equivalent to setting the value to false.
For more information, see .NET Core globalization invariant mode.

	Setting name	Values
runtimeconfig.json	`System.Globalization.Invariant`	`false` - access to cultural data `true` - run in invariant mode
MSBuild property	`InvariantGlobalization`	`false` - access to cultural data `true` - run in invariant mode
Environment variable	`DOTNET_SYSTEM_GLOBALIZATION_INVARIANT`	`0` - access to cultural data `1` - run in invariant mode

Examples

runtimeconfig.json file:

{
   "runtimeOptions": {
      "configProperties": {
         "System.Globalization.Invariant": true
      }
   }
}

runtimeconfig.template.json file:

{
   "configProperties": {
      "System.Globalization.Invariant": true
   }
}

Project file:

<Project Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk">

  <PropertyGroup>
    <InvariantGlobalization>true</InvariantGlobalization>
  </PropertyGroup>

</Project>

Era year ranges

Determines whether range checks for calendars that support multiple eras are relaxed or whether dates that overflow an era's date range throw an ArgumentOutOfRangeException.
If you omit this setting, range checks are relaxed. This is equivalent to setting the value to false.
For more information, see Calendars, eras, and date ranges: Relaxed range checks.

	Setting name	Values
runtimeconfig.json	`Switch.System.Globalization.EnforceJapaneseEraYearRanges`	`false` - relaxed range checks `true` - overflows cause an exception
Environment variable	N/A	N/A

This configuration setting doesn't have a specific MSBuild property. However, you can add a RuntimeHostConfigurationOption MSBuild item instead. Use the runtimeconfig.json setting name as the value of the Include attribute. For an example, see MSBuild properties.

Japanese date parsing

Determines whether a string that contains either "1" or "Gannen" as the year parses successfully or whether only "1" is supported.
If you omit this setting, strings that contain either "1" or "Gannen" as the year parse successfully. This is equivalent to setting the value to false.
For more information, see Represent dates in calendars with multiple eras.

	Setting name	Values
runtimeconfig.json	`Switch.System.Globalization.EnforceLegacyJapaneseDateParsing`	`false` - "Gannen" or "1" is supported `true` - only "1" is supported
Environment variable	N/A	N/A

Japanese year format

Determines whether the first year of a Japanese calendar era is formatted as "Gannen" or as a number.
If you omit this setting, the first year is formatted as "Gannen". This is equivalent to setting the value to false.
For more information, see Represent dates in calendars with multiple eras.

	Setting name	Values
runtimeconfig.json	`Switch.System.Globalization.FormatJapaneseFirstYearAsANumber`	`false` - format as "Gannen" `true` - format as number
Environment variable	N/A	N/A

NLS

Determines whether .NET uses National Language Support (NLS) or International Components for Unicode (ICU) globalization APIs for Windows apps. .NET 5 and later versions use ICU globalization APIs by default on Windows 10 May 2019 Update and later versions.
If you omit this setting, .NET uses ICU globalization APIs by default. This is equivalent to setting the value to false.
For more information, see Globalization APIs use ICU libraries on Windows.

	Setting name	Values	Introduced
runtimeconfig.json	`System.Globalization.UseNls`	`false` - Use ICU globalization APIs `true` - Use NLS globalization APIs	.NET 5
Environment variable	`DOTNET_SYSTEM_GLOBALIZATION_USENLS`	`false` - Use ICU globalization APIs `true` - Use NLS globalization APIs	.NET 5

Predefined cultures

Configures whether apps can create cultures other than the invariant culture when globalization-invariant mode is enabled.
If you omit this setting, .NET restricts the creation of cultures in globalization-invariant mode. This is equivalent to setting the value to true.
For more information, see Culture creation and case mapping in globalization-invariant mode.

	Setting name	Values	Introduced
runtimeconfig.json	`System.Globalization.PredefinedCulturesOnly`	`true` - In globalization-invariant mode, don't allow creation of any culture except the invariant culture. `false` - Allow creation of any culture.	.NET 6
MSBuild property	`PredefinedCulturesOnly`	`true` - In globalization-invariant mode, don't allow creation of any culture except the invariant culture. `false` - Allow creation of any culture.	.NET 6
Environment variable	`DOTNET_SYSTEM_GLOBALIZATION_PREDEFINED_CULTURES_ONLY`	`true` - In globalization-invariant mode, don't allow creation of any culture except the invariant culture. `false` - Allow creation of any culture.	.NET 6
