CultureInfo.ReadOnly Method

Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.

Returns a read-only wrapper around the specified CultureInfo object.

Namespace:  System.Globalization
Assembly:  mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Shared Function ReadOnly ( _
    ci As CultureInfo _
) As CultureInfo

public static CultureInfo ReadOnly(
    CultureInfo ci
)

Parameters

Return Value

Type: System.Globalization.CultureInfo
A read-only CultureInfo wrapper around ci.

Exceptions

Exception Condition
ArgumentNullException

ci is null.

Remarks

This wrapper prevents any modifications to ci, or the objects returned by the ci.DateTimeFormat and ci.NumberFormat properties.

Examples

The following example shows that the ReadOnly method helps protect the DateTimeFormatInfo and NumberFormatInfo instances associated with the CultureInfo.

Imports System.Globalization


Public Class Example

   Public Shared Sub Demo(ByVal outputBlock As System.Windows.Controls.TextBlock)

      ' Creates a CultureInfo.
      Dim myCI As New CultureInfo("en-US")

      ' Creates a read-only CultureInfo based on myCI.
      Dim myReadOnlyCI As CultureInfo = CultureInfo.ReadOnly(myCI)

      ' Display the read-only status of each CultureInfo and their DateTimeFormat and NumberFormat properties.
      If myCI.IsReadOnly Then
         outputBlock.Text &= "myCI is read only." & vbCrLf
