StringFormat::StringFormat(INT,LANGID) method (gdiplusstringformat.h)

Creates a StringFormat object based on string format flags and a language.

Syntax

void StringFormat(
  [in] INT    formatFlags,
  [in] LANGID language
);

Parameters

[in] formatFlags

Type: INT

Optional. Value that specifies the format flags that control most of the characteristics of the StringFormat object. The flags are set by applying a bitwise OR to elements of the StringFormatFlags enumeration. The default value is 0 (no flags set).

[in] language

Type: LANGID

Optional. Sixteen-bit value that specifies the language to use. The default value is LANG_NEUTRAL, which is the user's default language.

Return value

None

Remarks

When specifying LANG_NEUTRAL as the language ID, it is common practice to pass just LANG_NEUTRAL as in the following example:

stat = FontFamily.GetFamilyName(name, LANG_NEUTRAL);

If you are specifying a language other than LANG_NEUTRAL, use MAKELANGID to create the language and sublanguage combination as in the following example:

LANGID language = MAKELANGID(LANG_CHINESE, SUBLANG_CHINESE_TRADITIONAL);

For a list of the available languages and sublanguages, see Winnt.h.
