Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
/** @property */ public String get_Name ()
public function get Name () : String
Not applicable.
Property Value
The culture name in the format "<languagecode2>-<country/regioncode2>", where <languagecode2> is a lowercase two-letter code derived from ISO 639-1 and <country/regioncode2> is an uppercase two-letter code derived from ISO 3166.The CultureInfo.Name property follows the naming standards provided in the CultureInfo class topic.
To get the full name of the culture, the application should use DisplayName, EnglishName, or NativeName.
The following code example displays several properties of the neutral cultures.
 Note: |
|---|
| The example displays the zh-CHS and zh-CHT cultures 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. |
