CultureAndRegionModifiers Enumeration
Specifies constants that define a CultureAndRegionInfoBuilder object.
This enumeration has a FlagsAttribute attribute that allows a bitwise combination of its member values.
Namespace: System.GlobalizationAssembly: sysglobl (in sysglobl.dll)
Specify a bitwise combination of one or more CultureAndRegionModifiers values as a parameter of the CultureAndRegionInfoBuilder.CultureAndRegionInfoBuilder(String, CultureAndRegionModifiers) constructor. The application should use the resulting CultureAndRegionInfoBuilder object to create a custom culture.
A custom culture can have a combination of these characteristics:
A custom culture can be a specific culture or a neutral culture.
A specific culture specifies a language and a region, while a neutral culture specifies a language but no region.
A custom culture can be a replacement culture or a supplemental culture.
A replacement culture replaces a culture that ships with the .NET Framework or a locale that ships with Windows.
A supplemental culture is anything other than a replacement culture. A supplemental culture can be entirely new, or can extend an existing .NET Framework culture or Windows locale.
The following code example creates a custom culture with a private use prefix, then lists a set of its properties. The first property is the name of the culture.
