How to get list of locales in .Net

I would like to give user option to select text file locale.

Is there some class in .net that keeps list of available locales?

Now, I am planning to make my own list class from MSDN page: Language Identifier Constants and Strings, but it would be nicer if there is something already in .net.

Here is MSDN article on CultureInfo.GetCultures metho开发者_StackOverflow中文版d that Jeremy wrote in his answer. There are also code examples.

You'd want like a 'for each locale loop'.

    Dim info As CultureInfo
    For Each info In CultureInfo.GetCultures(CultureTypes.AllCultures)

        ListBox1.Items.Add(info.EnglishName)
    Next

Takes like half a second to dump a list of locales into the Listbox1

Then you can reference 'info' in various ways such as:

    info.NumberFormat
    info.DateTimeFormat

Get todays date in that locales date:

        If Not info.IsNeutralCulture Then
            Dim dateNow As DateTime = DateTime.Now
            ListBox1.Items.Add(dateNow.ToString("d", info.DateTimeFormat).ToString)
        End If

check out everything around the System.Globalization.CultureInfo class. you'll probably find there what you are looking for
