CultureInfo.OptionalCalendars Property

Definition

Gets the list of calendars that can be used by the culture.

public:
 virtual property cli::array <System::Globalization::Calendar ^> ^ OptionalCalendars { cli::array <System::Globalization::Calendar ^> ^ get(); };
public virtual System.Globalization.Calendar[] OptionalCalendars { get; }
member this.OptionalCalendars : System.Globalization.Calendar[]
Public Overridable ReadOnly Property OptionalCalendars As Calendar()

Property Value

An array of type Calendar that represents the calendars that can be used by the culture represented by the current CultureInfo.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to determine the GregorianCalendar versions supported by the culture.

using namespace System;
using namespace System::Globalization;
using namespace System::Collections;
int main()
{
   
   // Calendar* myOptCals[] = new CultureInfo(S"ar-SA") -> OptionalCalendars;
   CultureInfo^ MyCI = gcnew CultureInfo( "ar-SA" );
   array<Calendar^>^myOptCals = MyCI->OptionalCalendars;
   
   // Checks which ones are GregorianCalendar then determines the GregorianCalendar version.
   Console::WriteLine( "The ar-SA culture supports the following calendars:" );
   IEnumerator^ myEnum = myOptCals->GetEnumerator();
   while ( myEnum->MoveNext() )
   {
      Calendar^ cal = safe_cast<Calendar^>(myEnum->Current);
      if ( cal->GetType() == GregorianCalendar::typeid )
      {
         GregorianCalendar^ myGreCal = dynamic_cast<GregorianCalendar^>(cal);
         GregorianCalendarTypes calType = myGreCal->CalendarType;
         Console::WriteLine( " {0} ( {1})", cal, calType );
      }
      else
            Console::WriteLine( " {0}", cal );
   }
}

/*

The ar-SA culture supports the following calendars:

Remarks

Your application changes the calendar used by the current CultureInfo by setting the Calendar property of DateTimeFormat, which is an instance of the DateTimeFormatInfo class. The new calendar must be one of the calendars listed in OptionalCalendars. DateTimeFormat also includes other properties that customize the date and time formatting associated with that Calendar.
