Public Class XmlLanguage

Inheritance: Object
XmlLanguage

Attributes: TypeConverterAttribute

Remarks

The language tag may or may not have a registered CultureInfo present on the system where the XAML is interpreted.

This class is useful for dealing with values represented using xml:lang in XML.

Language tags can be specified in two-character form or in a hyphenated language-locale form. See RFC 3066.

Note that the XML specification allows the empty string for xml:lang, although that is not permitted by RFC 3066; therefore, the XmlLanguage type permits "" (empty attribute string). A default-constructed XmlLanguage behaves as if constructed with "" (empty string).

XAML Attribute Usage

<object property="prefix"/>  
- or -  
<object property="prefix-subcode"/>

XAML Values

prefix
Language prefix, using the ISO 639-1 language prefix values. For example "en", or "zh". Uppercase values are accepted and converted to lowercase. This may also be an empty attribute, "".

subcode
If provided, must be preceded by a single hyphen. Then, a subcode as defined by RFC 3066. The most typical usage, and the one which is most likely to properly map to a CultureInfo, is a country or regional designation such as "-us" or "-hk". Uppercase values are accepted and converted to lowercase.

Properties

Empty	Gets a static XmlLanguage instance as would be created by GetLanguage(String) with the language tag as an empty attribute string.
IetfLanguageTag	Gets the string representation of the language tag.
