IHttpSessionState.LCID Property

Definition

Gets or sets the locale identifier (LCID) of the current session.

public:
 property int LCID { int get(); void set(int value); };
public int LCID { get; set; }
member this.LCID : int with get, set
Public Property LCID As Integer

Property Value

A CultureInfo instance that specifies the culture of the current session.

Examples

The following code example implements the LCID property of the IHttpSessionState interface to get and set the locale identifier for the current page.

//
// Session.LCID exists only to support legacy ASP compatibility. ASP.NET developers should use
// Page.LCID instead.
//
public int LCID
{
  get { return Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture.LCID; }
  set { Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = CultureInfo.ReadOnly(new CultureInfo(value)); }
}
'
    ' Session.LCID exists only to support legacy ASP compatibility. ASP.NET developers should use
' Page.LCID instead.
'
Public Property LCID As Integer Implements IHttpSessionState.LCID
  Get
    Return Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture.LCID
  End Get
  Set
    Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = CultureInfo.ReadOnly(new CultureInfo(value))
  End Set
End Property

Remarks

This LCID property is provided for compatibility with earlier versions of ASP only. If you do not need to maintain backward compatibility with ASP pages, use the LCID property instead.

ASP.NET does not store the locale identifier in session state. The LCID property calls the LCID to get and set the identifier.
