For multilingual asp.net mvc web site.
Where should i set thread's culture to default language (which is tr-TR for my case), in addition i need to save this in cookie if it does not exists. in Application_Start() or else ?
I have multiple sites(domains), so i need to change default language site specific.
example.com must set default culture to tr-TR
example2.com must set default culture to en-US
Try it setting in web.config
<configuration>
<system.web>
<globalization uiCulture="en-GB" culture="en-GB" />
</system.web>
</configuration>
this is a more generic way to set the culture...
You can set culture in Application_AcquireRequestState:
protected void Application_AcquireRequestState(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
// A Cookie
string cookie = HttpContext.Current.Request.Cookies["culture"].Value;
Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = CultureInfo.GetCultureInfo(cookie);
Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = CultureInfo.GetCultureInfo(cookie);
}
