Examples

The following example contains a portion of the source code from an application that uses the SortVersion class to ensure that the native names of RegionInfo objects are ordered appropriately for the current system and current culture. It uses the BinaryReader and BinaryWriter objects to store and retrieve ordered data from a data file named Regions.dat rather than retrieving and ordering data each time the application is run. The example first checks to determine whether the data file exists. If it does not, it creates the data and sets the reindex flag, which indicates that the data must be resorted and saved again. Otherwise, it retrieves the data and compares the saved SortVersion object with the SortVersion object for the current culture on the current system. If they are not equal, or if the reindex flag had been set previously, it resorts to the RegionInfo data.
