Properties

DisplayName

The display name to use for the specified locale.

Locale

The name of the locale or language in which to use this display name. To select the actual display name, the user's current culture is examined. A locale appropriate to the user's culture is selected. The selection is made by checking for a display name attribute with a locale that matches:

  • The value of System.Globalization.CultureInfo.Name
  • The value of System.Globalization.CultureInfo.TwoLetterISOLanguageName
  • Any display name attribute created without a specified locale, or with the locale set to empty-string.
  • The two-letter ISO code for English, "en".

If no appropriate display name can be found, the name of the plug-in's implementing class is used.
