|
|
GetHashCode | Serves as a hash function for the current TextInfo, suitable for hashing algorithms and data structures, such as a hash table. (Overrides Object.GetHashCode().) |
|
|
GetType | Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.) |
|
|
MemberwiseClone | Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) |
|
ReadOnly | Returns a read-only version of the specified TextInfo object. |
|
|
ToLower(Char) | Converts the specified character to lowercase. |
|
|
ToLower(String) | Converts the specified string to lowercase. |
|
|
ToString | Returns a string that represents the current TextInfo. (Overrides Object.ToString().) |
|
|
ToTitleCase | Converts the specified string to titlecase. |
|
|
ToUpper(Char) | Converts the specified character to uppercase. |
|
|
ToUpper(String) | Converts the specified string to uppercase. |

IDeserializationCallback.OnDeserialization | Infrastructure. Raises the deserialization event when deserialization is complete. |
A writing system is the collection of scripts and orthographic rules required to represent a language as text. The TextInfo class represents a writing system.
The application should use the CultureInfo.TextInfo property to obtain the TextInfo object for a particular CultureInfo object. If a security decision depends on a string comparison or a case-change operation, the application should use the CultureInfo.TextInfo property of the object returned by the CultureInfo.InvariantCulture property to ensure that the behavior of the operation is consistent regardless of the operating system culture settings.
Overrides
The user might use the regional and language options portion of Control Panel to override the values associated with the current culture of Windows. For example, the user might choose to display the date in a different format or to use a currency other than the default for the culture. If the CultureInfo.UseUserOverride property is set to true, the property values of the objects returned by the CultureInfo.DateTimeFormat, CultureInfo.NumberFormat, and CultureInfo.TextInfo properties are also retrieved from the user settings. If the user settings are incompatible with the culture associated with the CultureInfo, for example, if the selected calendar is not one of the OptionalCalendars, the results of the methods and the values of the properties are undefined.
Windows 7, Windows Vista SP1 or later, Windows XP SP3, Windows XP SP2 x64 Edition, Windows Server 2008 (Server Core not supported), Windows Server 2008 R2 (Server Core supported with SP1 or later), Windows Server 2003 SP2
The .NET Framework does not support all versions of every platform. For a list of the supported versions, see .NET Framework System Requirements.
