C# BackgroundWorker's culture

Question

I woudl like to set the culture for my whole application. I tried the following :

Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = CultureInfo.CreateSpecificCulture(wanted         


        

Answer 1

My solution was to have a central culture property (Application.CurrentCulture is per-thread) and set the current thread culture to this in the beginning of a worker thread. A job system helps with this, since you can then easily execute generic code before and after the work item, and the job system class can hold the culture accessible by its jobs, so you don't need globals.
