Class LanguagePair

A LanguagePair represents a combination of a source language and a target language. Languages are specified using their culture or the culture which usually maps to CultureInfo.Name. However, since the XmlSerializer cannot serialize System.Globalization.CultureInfo objects, the culture can also be specified using the name.

Syntax

public class LanguagePair : IComparable<LanguagePair>

Constructors

LanguagePair()

Instantiates a new object and initializes both languages to the invariant culture.

Declaration

public LanguagePair()

LanguagePair(CultureInfo, CultureInfo)

Instantiates a new object and initializes it with the provided language direction.

Declaration

public LanguagePair(CultureInfo srcCulture, CultureInfo trgCulture)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
System.Globalization.CultureInfo	srcCulture	The source culture
System.Globalization.CultureInfo	trgCulture	The target culture

LanguagePair(String, String)

Instantiates a new object and initializes it with the provided language direction.

Declaration

public LanguagePair(string srcCultureName, string trgCultureName)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
System.String	srcCultureName	The source culture name
System.String	trgCultureName	The target culture name

Properties

SourceCulture

Gets or sets the source culture

Declaration

public CultureInfo SourceCulture { get; set; }

Property Value

Type	Description
System.Globalization.CultureInfo

SourceCultureName

Gets or sets the source language in form of a culture code.

Declaration

public string SourceCultureName { get; set; }

Property Value

Type	Description
System.String

TargetCulture

Gets or sets the target culture

Declaration

public CultureInfo TargetCulture { get; set; }

Property Value

Type	Description
System.Globalization.CultureInfo

TargetCultureName

Gets or sets the target language in form of a culture code.

Declaration

public string TargetCultureName { get; set; }

Property Value

Type	Description
System.String

Methods

CompareTo(LanguagePair)

Compares the language directions, which is achieved by lexically comparing the source and target culture names.

Declaration

public int CompareTo(LanguagePair other)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
LanguagePair	other

Returns

Type	Description
System.Int32	A comparision result

Equals(Object)

System.Object.Equals(object)

Declaration

public override bool Equals(object obj)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
System.Object	obj	The object to compare with the current object.

Returns

Type	Description
System.Boolean	true if the specified object is equal to the current object; otherwise, false.

Overrides

System.Object.Equals(System.Object)

GetHashCode()

System.Object.GetHashCode()

Declaration

public override int GetHashCode()

Returns

Type	Description
System.Int32	A hash code for this object

Overrides

System.Object.GetHashCode()

IsCompatible(LanguagePair)

Checks whether a language pair is compatible to another language pair, which is the case if the source and target cultures of both language pairs are non-null and are pairwise compatible with each other (AreCompatible(CultureInfo, CultureInfo)).

Declaration

public bool IsCompatible(LanguagePair other)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
LanguagePair	other

Returns

Type	Description
System.Boolean

Reverse()

Creates a new language pair object with the reversed language direction.

Declaration

public LanguagePair Reverse()

Returns

Type	Description
LanguagePair

ToString()

System.Object.ToString()

Declaration

public override string ToString()

Returns

Type	Description
System.String	A string representation of the object, for display purposes.

Overrides

System.Object.ToString()

TryParse(String, out LanguagePair)

Attempts to parse a language pair represented by a string, as produced by ToString().

Declaration

public static bool TryParse(string s, out LanguagePair lp)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
System.String	s	The input string
LanguagePair	lp	Will hold the deserialized (parsed) return value upon success, and is set to null otherwise.

Returns

Type	Description
System.Boolean	true if the parsing was successful, false otherwise.
