Remarks

A writing system is the collection of scripts and orthographic rules required to represent a language as text. The TextInfo class represents a writing system.

The application should use the CultureInfo.TextInfo property to obtain the TextInfo object for a particular CultureInfo object. If a security decision depends on a string comparison or a case-change operation, the application should use the CultureInfo.TextInfo property of the object returned by the CultureInfo.InvariantCulture property to ensure that the behavior of the operation is consistent regardless of the operating system culture settings.
