IHostTaskManager::SetLocale Method

Notifies the host that the common language runtime (CLR) has changed the locale, or culture, on the currently executing task.

HRESULT SetLocale (
    [in] LCID lcid
);

Parameters

  • lcid
    [in] The locale identifier value that maps to the newly assigned geographical culture and language.

Return Value

HRESULT

Description

S_OK

SetLocale returned successfully.

HOST_E_CLRNOTAVAILABLE

The CLR has not been loaded into a process, or the CLR is in a state in which it cannot run managed code or process the call successfully.

HOST_E_TIMEOUT

The call timed out.

HOST_E_NOT_OWNER

The caller does not own the lock.

HOST_E_ABANDONED

An event was canceled while a blocked thread or fiber was waiting on it.

E_FAIL

An unknown catastrophic failure occurred. When a method returns E_FAIL, the CLR is no longer usable within the process. Subsequent calls to hosting methods return HOST_E_CLRNOTAVAILABLE.

E_NOTIMPL

The host does not allow managed user code to modify the locale.

Remarks

The runtime calls SetLocale when the value of the Thread..::.CurrentCulture property is changed by managed code. This method provides an opportunity for the host to execute any mechanisms it might have for synchronization of locales. If a host does not allow the locale to be changed from managed code, or does not implement a mechanism to synchronize locales, it should return E_NOTIMPL from this method.
