如何在C＃中使用多语言

Question

I'm trying to prepare an application with more languages available. I prepared the simplest example to learn it, I done a lot of tentative but I'm not able to do it.

CultureInfo cul = new CultureInfo("de-De");           
Resources.Culture = new System.Globalization.CultureInfo("de-De");

label1.Text = TestLanguages.Properties.Resources.Saluto;

In my application I have two resources different resources , one for Italian language, one for German.

• Italian Resource : Saluto -> Ciao
• German Resource : Saluto -> Hallo

But I can't use the German one. How can I do it?

You have to change the UI culture of the currently executing thread.

System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = new System.Globalization.CultureInfo("de-De");
label1.Text = TestLanguages.Properties.Resources.Saluto;

See the documentation for Thread.CurrentUICulture

Gets or sets the current culture used by the Resource Manager to look up culture-specific resources at run time.
