[C #]
// get culture names List<string> list = new List<string>(); foreach (CultureInfo ci in CultureInfo.GetCultures(CultureTypes.AllCultures)) { string specName = "(none)"; try { specName = CultureInfo.CreateSpecificCulture(ci.Name).Name; } catch { } list.Add(String.Format("{0,-12}{1,-12}{2}", ci.Name, specName, ci.EnglishName)); } list.Sort(); // sort by name // write to console Console.WriteLine("CULTURE SPEC.CULTURE ENGLISH NAME"); Console.WriteLine("--------------------------------------------------------------"); foreach (string str in list) Console.WriteLine(str);
