Examples

The following code example compares two instances of RegionInfo that were created differently.

using namespace System;
using namespace System::Globalization;
int main()
{
   
   // Creates a RegionInfo using the ISO 3166 two-letter code.
   RegionInfo^ myRI1 = gcnew RegionInfo( "US" );
   
   // Creates a RegionInfo using a CultureInfo.LCID.
   RegionInfo^ myRI2 = gcnew RegionInfo( (gcnew CultureInfo( "en-US",false ))->LCID );
   
   // Compares the two instances.
   if ( myRI1->Equals( myRI2 ) )
      Console::WriteLine( "The two RegionInfo instances are equal." );
   else
      Console::WriteLine( "The two RegionInfo instances are NOT equal." );
}

/*

The two RegionInfo instances are equal.

using System;
using System.Globalization;

public class SamplesRegionInfo  {

   public static void Main()  {

      // Creates a RegionInfo using the ISO 3166 two-letter code.
      RegionInfo myRI1 = new RegionInfo( "US" );

      // Creates a RegionInfo using a CultureInfo.LCID.
      RegionInfo myRI2 = new RegionInfo( new CultureInfo("en-US",false).LCID );

      // Compares the two instances.
      if ( myRI1.Equals( myRI2 ) )
         Console.WriteLine( "The two RegionInfo instances are equal." );
      else
         Console.WriteLine( "The two RegionInfo instances are NOT equal." );
   }
}
