Implement multi-language environment in MVC

1. Global. CS

Code

1 /// <summary>
2 // start to switch the language for each request
3 /// </Summary>
4 /// <Param name = "sender"> </param>
5 /// <Param name = "E"> </param>
6 protected void application_beginrequest (Object sender, eventargs E)
7 {
8 string culture = "En-us ";
9 httpcookie cookie = request. Cookies ["Lang"];
10 if (cookie = NULL)
11 {
12 if (request. userages! = NULL) & (request. userages. length> 0 ))
13 {
14 culture = request. userages [0];
15}
16}
17 else
18 {
19 culture = cookie. value;
20}
21 system. Globalization. cultureinfo = NULL;
22 try
23 {
24 cultureinfo = new system. Globalization. cultureinfo (Culture );
25}
26 catch
27 {
28 cultureinfo = new system. Globalization. cultureinfo ("En-us ");
29}
30 system. Threading. thread. currentthread. currentculture = cultureinfo;
31 system. Threading. thread. currentthread. currentuiculture = cultureinfo;
32}

 

 

2. Language Switching

Code

1 /// <summary>
2 // select a language
3 /// </Summary>
4 /// <Param name = "Lang"> </param>
5 /// <returns> </returns>
6 Public actionresult selectlanguage (string Lang)
7 {
8 httpcookie cookie = new httpcookie ("Lang ");
9 cookie. value = string. isnullorempty (Lang )? "ZH-CN": Lang. Trim ();
10 cookie. expires. adddays (1 );
11 response. Cookies. Remove ("Lang ");
12 response. Cookies. Add (cookie );
13
14 string redirecturl = "/";
15 if (request. urlreferrer! = NULL)
16 {
17 redirecturl = request. urlreferrer. pathandquery;
18}
19
20 return redirect (redirecturl );
21}

 

 

3. Add app_globalresources

Resource. resx
Resource. zh-CN.resx

 

4. Use in code
CS: resources. Resource. Name

View: <% = resources. Resource. name %>

 

5. query the language selected by the current user in JS

 

1 function getclientlang (){
2 var L = getcookie ("Lang") | navigator. browserlanguage | navigator. Language | "ZH-CN ";
3 return L. tolowercase ();
4}
