Description

2022/05/02

In Section 2.2, LCID Structure, added the following language IDs to the table: 0x2000   Unassigned LCID locale temporarily assigned to LCID 0x3000. See section 2.2.1. 0x2400   Unassigned LCID locale temporarily assigned to LCID 0x3000. See section 2.2.1. 0x2800   Unassigned LCID locale temporarily assigned to LCID 0x3000. See section 2.2.1. 0x2C00   Unassigned LCID locale temporarily assigned to LCID 0x3000. See section 2.2.1. In Section 2.2.1, Locale Names without LCIDs, updated the table: Changed from: Name Value Conditions LOCALE_CUSTOM_USER_DEFAULT<15> 0x0C00 When an LCID without a  permanent LCID assignment is also the current user locale, the protocol will  respond with LOCALE_CUSTOM_USER_DEFAULT for that locale. This assignment  persists until the user changes the locale. Because the meaning changes over  time, applications are discouraged from persisting this data. Though this  value will likely refer to the same locale for the lifetime of the current  process, that is not guaranteed. This assignment is a 1-to-1 relationship  between this LCID and the user’s current default locale name. Transient LCIDs<16> 0x3000, 0x3400, 0x3800, 0x3C00, 0x4000,  0x4400, 0x4800, 0x4C00 Some  user configurations temporarily associate a locale without a permanent LCID  assignment with one of these 8 transient LCIDs. This assignment is transient and it is not guaranteed; it  will likely refer to the same locale for the lifetime of the process.  However, this assignment will differ for other users on the machine, or other  machines, and, as such, is unsuitable for use in protocols or persisted data.  This assignment is a temporary 1-to-1 relationship between an LCID and a  particular locale name and will round trip until that relationship changes. Changed to: Name Value Conditions LOCALE_CUSTOM_USER_DEFAULT<15> 0x0C00 When an LCID without a  permanent LCID assignment is also the current user locale, the protocol will  respond with LOCALE_CUSTOM_USER_DEFAULT for that locale. This assignment  persists until the user changes the locale. Because the meaning changes over  time, applications are discouraged from persisting this data. Though this  value will likely refer to the same locale for the lifetime of the current  process, that is not guaranteed. This assignment is a 1-to-1 relationship  between this LCID and the user’s current default locale name. Transient LCIDs<16> 0x2000, 0x2400, 0x2800, 0x2C00,0x3000, 0x3400, 0x3800, 0x3C00, 0x4000,  0x4400, 0x4800, 0x4C00 Some  user configurations temporarily associate a locale without a permanent LCID  assignment with one of these 12 transient LCIDs. This assignment is transient and it is not guaranteed; it  will likely refer to the same locale for the lifetime of the process.  However, this assignment will differ for other users on the machine, or other  machines, and, as such, is unsuitable for use in protocols or persisted data.  This assignment is a temporary 1-to-1 relationship between an LCID and a  particular locale name and will round trip until that relationship changes.
