CultureInfo.IsNeutralCulture Property

Definition

Gets a value indicating whether the current CultureInfo represents a neutral culture.

public:
 virtual property bool IsNeutralCulture { bool get(); };
public virtual bool IsNeutralCulture { get; }
member this.IsNeutralCulture : bool
Public Overridable ReadOnly Property IsNeutralCulture As Boolean

Property Value

true if the current CultureInfo represents a neutral culture; otherwise, false.

Examples

The following code example determines which cultures using the Chinese language are neutral cultures.

Note

The example displays the older zh-CHS and zh-CHT culture names with the 0x0004 and 0x7C04 culture identifiers, respectively. However, your Windows Vista applications should use the zh-Hans name instead of zh-CHS and the zh-Hant name instead of zh-CHT. The zh-Hans and zh-Hant names represent the current standard, and should be used unless you have a reason for using the older names.

using namespace System;
using namespace System::Globalization;
int main()
{
   
   // Lists the cultures that use the Chinese language and determines if each is a neutral culture.
   System::Collections::IEnumerator^ enum0 = CultureInfo::GetCultures( CultureTypes::AllCultures )->GetEnumerator();
   while ( enum0->MoveNext() )
   {
      CultureInfo^ ci = safe_cast<CultureInfo^>(enum0->Current);
      if ( ci->TwoLetterISOLanguageName->Equals( "zh" ) )
      {
         Console::Write( "{0,-7} {1,-40}", ci->Name, ci->EnglishName );
         if ( ci->IsNeutralCulture )
         {
            Console::WriteLine( ": neutral" );
         }
         else
         {
            Console::WriteLine( ": specific" );
         }
      }
   }
}

Remarks

A neutral culture is a culture that is associated with a language but not with a country or region. It differs from a specific culture, which is a culture that is associated with both a language and a country or region. For example, fr is the name for the neutral French culture, while fr-FR is the name for the French culture in France.

If this property returns false, the culture is either a specific culture or the invariant culture.
