Remarks

You can use the data from the InputLanguageChangedEventArgs to make decisions about whether to change Input Method Editors (IMEs) or swap right-to-left values. You can also change the CurrentCulture of a thread and the CurrentUICulture properties so that different resources get picked up.

An InputLanguageChangedEventArgs identifies the locale and the character set of the new input language.

The InputLanguageChanging event precedes the InputLanguageChanged event.

Constructors

InputLanguageChangedEventArgs(CultureInfo, Byte)	Initializes a new instance of the InputLanguageChangedEventArgs class with the specified locale and character set.
InputLanguageChangedEventArgs(InputLanguage, Byte)	Initializes a new instance of the InputLanguageChangedEventArgs class with the specified input language and character set.

Properties

CharSet	Gets the character set associated with the new input language.
Culture	Gets the locale of the input language.
InputLanguage	Gets a value indicating the input language.

Methods

Equals(Object)	Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object. (Inherited from Object)
GetHashCode()	Serves as the default hash function. (Inherited from Object)
GetType()	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object)
MemberwiseClone()	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object)
ToString()	Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object)
