Bug with DateTimePicker and switching Languages

Answered

Hi,

Thank you for fixing the System.DateTimeExtensions problem in the latest build (1.4.95).

We have now discovered another problem with the DateTimePicker when switching languages (i.e. from English to French and vice versa). The language of the TextBox portion and the calendar drop down do not match the browser language when switched at runtime. Please see the little video and the example project.

Thanks,

There is a better way to change the language now, you can assign it directly in code:

Application.CurrentCulture = CultureInfo.GetCultureInfo(“en”);

Application.CurrentCulture = CultureInfo.GetCultureInfo(“fr”);

However, please keep in mind that once an object has been created and localized Wisej cannot force a new creation (it would break anyone’s code) of all forms and controls. It’s up to your app to decide what to do if the language is changed after localized controls have been created. You can listen to the Application.CultureChanged event for that.

For the case attached, it’s enough to do this:

Application.CurrentCulture = CultureInfo.GetCultureInfo(“fr”);

Application.Reload();

Also, the URL remains “clean” without the lang parameter.
