2.2.29 WMI Locale Formats

The client can request data from the WMI server in a client-preferred locale. The format of each locale MUST conform to one of the following:

  • "MS_xxx" format, where "xxx" is a string representation of LCID in BASE16, which identifies the locale as specified in [MS-LCID]. For example, to send LCID 1033 (0x409), the string is "MS_409".

  • Locale name format as specified in [MS-LCID]. For example, LCID 1033 (0x409) maps to en-US and is passed as "en-US" in this representation.
