CultureInfo::GetCultureInfo Method (Int32)
Retrieves a cached, read-only instance of a culture by using the specified culture identifier.
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
Parameters
- culture
- Type: System::Int32
A locale identifier (LCID).
| Exception | Condition |
|---|---|
| ArgumentOutOfRangeException | culture is less than zero. |
| CultureNotFoundException | culture specifies a culture that is not supported. |
We recommend that you use the string overload of this method (GetCultureInfo) to use locale names instead of LCIDs. For custom locales, the locale name is required.
If culture is the locale identifier of the current culture, the returned CultureInfo object does not reflect any user overrides.
Notes to CallersThe .NET Framework version 3.5 and earlier versions throw an ArgumentException if culture is not a valid culture identifier. Starting with the .NET Framework version 4, this method throws a CultureNotFoundException.
