Describing a Culture with LDML Data

아티클
11/03/2006

When you save a culture with System.Globalization.CultureAndRegionInfoBuilder.Save(System.String), the resulting XML representation of the CultureAndRegionInfoBuilder object follows the format of Locale Data Markup Language (LDML) version 1.1. The CreateFromLdml method is the inverse of Save, and loads from this XML file.

Most of the meaningful data that describes a culture is contained in special elements within the XML file. LDML special elements allow for product-specific annotation and data.

The .NET Framework uses the special element as a place to put data drawn from the msLocale schema, https://schemas.microsoft.com/globalization/2005/carib/ldml. (As is normal for a schema, that URI provides a unique name for the schema, but is not the URL of an actual document.) Most of the relevant XML elements correspond to properties (or to values returned by methods) of the classes that describe a culture, such as CultureAndRegionInfoBuilder and CultureInfo. A small number of elements are specific to Windows rather than to .NET, and are not included as properties of CultureAndRegionInfoBuilder.

For more information about the LDML standard, see Unicode Technical Standard #35, "Locale Data Markup Language (LDML)," at the Unicode home site.

Windows-only elements

Several elements below are described as Windows-only. That means they are relevant for unmanaged code on the Microsoft Windows operating system, but no relevant for .NET Framework. If you create an LDML file outside of .NET Framework, then use .NET Framework to register it, it becomes available to Windows as well as to .NET Framework, so these properties may be relevant. Also, inside .NET Framework, if you start from an existing culture definition, then modify it and save it as a custom culture (either a replacement culture or a supplemental culture), these Windows-only elements will pass through intact from the original culture to the saved culture.

Identity

The following elements fall under identity.

Element	Notes
version	Uses LDML 1.1, so this is `<version number="1.1">ldml version 1.1</version>`
generation	Indicates date file was generated. For example, `<generation date="2006-08-28" />`
special	A container; all content is drawn from the msLocale schema, see discussion immediately following.

The following elements fall under identity/special. Except as noted, all values are specified by a type attribute. For example:

    <identity>
        …
        <special xmlns:msLocale="https://schemas.microsoft.com/globalization/2005/carib/ldml">
             <!-- A typical case… -->
             <msLocale:cultureAndRegionInfoName type="en-US-fabricam"/>
             ...
             <!-- …but here are some examples that use CDATA -->
             <msLocale:geoId>244</msLocale:geoId>
             <msLocale:languageIsoName type="twoLetters">
                 en
             </msLocale:languageIsoName> 
             ...
        </special>

The following elements fall under characters/special/msLocale:fontSignature/msLocale:defaultCodePages and characters/special/msLocale:fontSignature/msLocale:codePages.

msLocale:ansiCodePage
msLocale:ansiOemCodePage
msLocale:oemCodePage

Each of these is strictly a container for msLocale:codePage elements, whose value is specified by a type attribute:

Element	Notes
msLocale:codePage	Specifies a code page. Must be appropriate to the element in which it is contained. For example, code page "1252" is a Windows "ANSI" code page and would fall under msLocale:ansiCodePage. Code page "932" is an ANSI/OEM code page, and would fall under msLocale:ansiOemCodePage. Code page "855" is an OEM code page, and would fall under msLocale:oemCodePage.

Under characters/special/msLocale:fontSignature/msLocale:defaultCodePages should be one of the following:

A single msLocale:ansiOemCodePage element containing a single msLocale:codePage element.
A single msLocale:ansiCodePage element containing a single msLocale:codePage element, and a single msLocale:oemCodePage element containing a single msLocale:codePage element.

This msLocale:defaultCodePages data is Windows-only data.

The characters/special/msLocale:fontSignature/msLocale:codePages data is Windows-only information. It lists all of the code pages that can support the language and script in question. Therefore, it is possible for this list to have multiple code pages of the same type. For example:

<msLocale:codePages>
    <msLocale:ansiCodePage>
        ...
    </msLocale:ansiCodePage>
    <msLocale:oemCodePage>
        <msLocale:codePage type="864" />
        <msLocale:codePage type="708" />
    </msLocale:oemCodePage>
</msLocale:codePages>

The following elements fall under characters/special/msLocale:fontSignature/msLocale:scripts. All values are specified by type attributes. This is Windows-only information; there is no way to set this data in Windows, but it corresponds to the return of the Windows GetStringScripts function.

Element	Property / Method	Notes

Dates

Note
When .NET Framework interprets a date and time formats from a standard LDML element (that is, one drawn from the LDML namespace, as against the msLocale schema), date and time formats are interpreted according to the POSIX rules: for example, the AM/PM indicator is "a". Elements in the msLocale schema follow Microsoft rules for date and time formats for example, the AM/PM indicator is "tt".

The following element falls under dates.

Element	Notes
calendars	A container element, see discussion immediately following.

The following elements fall under dates/calendars. All values are specified by type attributes. Properties and methods are from CultureAndRegionInfoBuilder unless otherwise noted.

Element Property / Method Notes

Element	Property / Method	Notes

This may be any of the following: "Gregorian" "Gregorian-US" "Japanese" "Taiwan" "Korean" "Hijri" "Thai" "Hebrew" "Gregorian-ME-French" "Gregorian-Arabic" "Gregorian-XLIT-English" "Gregorian-XLIT-French" In Microsoft-generated files, this will always match AvailableCalendars[0].
calendar	AvailableCalendars	This element may be repeated, once for each available calendar. The possible type values are the same as for default. This element also functions as a container for elements which provide data about the calendar. For non-default calendars, this is normally an empty element. Thus, if "Gregorian" and "Gregorian-US" are both available, and "Gregorian" is the default, the element for "Gregorian-US" will simply be `<calendar type=" Gregorian-US" />`.

msLocale:percentPositivePattern	PercentPositivePattern	Values that may be used here are listed at PercentPositivePattern.
msLocale:percentNagativePattern	PercentNegativePattern	Values that may be used here are listed at PercentNegativePattern.
msLocale:groupSizes	NumberGroupSizes	The actual grouping size is specified as CDATA. The type attribute serves to serialize this. There can be any number of these, each with a unique type attribute, serialized starting from "0". This starts from the least significant group of digits, as explained at NumberGroupSizes.
msLocale:nativeDigits	NativeDigits	One for each digit. The type attribute is a digit "0" through "9"; the CDATA specifies the character used to represent this digit.
msLocale:digitSubstitution	DigitSubstitution	Valid values for the type attribute are: "context" (the default) "none" (always use "0"-"9") "nativeNational" (always substitute)

For example:

<numbers>
    ...
    <special xmlns:msLocale="https://schemas.microsoft.com/globalization/2005/carib/ldml">
        <msLocale:decimalDigits>2</msLocale:decimalDigits>     
        <msLocale:negativePattern type="1"/>
        <msLocale:currencyDecimalDigits type="2"/>
        <msLocale:currencyPositivePattern type="0"/>
        <msLocale:currencyNegativePattern type="0"/>
        <msLocale:percentNegativePattern type="0"/>
        <msLocale:percentPositivePattern type="0"/>
        <msLocale:groupSizes type="0">3</msLocale:groupSizes>
        <msLocale:currencyGroupSizes type="0">
            3
        </msLocale:currencyGroupSizes>
        <msLocale:nativeDigits type="0">0</msLocale:nativeDigits>
        <msLocale:nativeDigits type="1">1</msLocale:nativeDigits>
        ...
        <msLocale:nativeDigits type="9">9</msLocale:nativeDigits>
        <msLocale:digitSubstitution type="context"/>
