Re: [WiX-users] Operating System language detection
Have you tried looking at the SystemLanguageID property? I was hoping to find a nice simple regkey to look for rather than having to compose a new DLL function. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Operating-System-language-detection-tf4671232.html#a13359979 Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.

GetSystemDefaultUILanguage, I think. -- Mike Dimmick -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Gareth at Serif Sent: 22 October 2007 17:15 To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [WiX-users] Operating System language detection Does anyone know hoe to determin the language of the operating system? I'm aware that the MSI Engine stores the locale, which you can configure in the control panel. However, there must be something deeper as some of Microsoft's KB updates (xmllite WIC, for example) seem to fail if the OS is of the wrong language above and beyoond the user configurable options within the Control Panel. So, what might these packages be detecting? I've tried using regmon to determin any locale ID's being read somewhere that I'm not familiar with, but so far no joy. Any recommendations are welcom.

Re: [WiX-users] Operating System language detection
The latest documentation I'm using - which accompanied VS2005 (must update this...) says that for GetSystemDefaultLangID, [t]he return value is the language identifier of the system locale. Which I think means it's the result of using the LANGIDFROMLCID macro on the return value of GetSystemDefaultLCID. That value is the system default locale identifier, which can be changed by the user on the Advanced tab of Regional and Language Options (in Windows XP and Server 2003), where it is called 'Language for non-Unicode programs'. See for example http://blogs.msdn.com/michkap/archive/2005/03/25/402313.aspx for what GetSystemDefaultUILanguage is, and http://blogs.msdn.com/michkap/archive/2005/04/08/406413.aspx for what all the other 'defaults' are. And see also http://www.microsoft.com/globaldev/reference/localetable.mspx for all the meanings of 'locale'.
