For consideration: Add explicit support for globalized routes about attributerouting HOT 5 CLOSED

Thanks Brent,

So you want to get a route param with culture info and then switch the culture of the current thread, yes?

From what I understand about changing the culture in the current thread, it might be too late to do that by the time AR handles a request. Usually I've set culture stuff for the thread in the Application_BeginRequest method in global.asax. There you'd have access to the current request and could pick off query string params, user languages, etc.

I had spiked out a localization solution, which I am not sure would be relevant here. You can view the localization branch in the github repo if you would like.

Let me know if I am missing the point.

Hi,

First off, this is a great library. Thanks so much for the investment of time and effort... very well put together.

Earlier this week I spent a bunch of time faffing around with culture switching based on locale route parameters. Any thoughts on adding some defaults into your library to help with this?

I'm a little crunched for time right now, but if you think it's a good idea, I wouldn't mind throwing a few hours towards a nice implementation.

Thanks again,

It's true, with web apps you would set the culture in BeginRequest traditionally, but I've done a little work on a decent looking solution that I'm happy to share (and that I think my have a place here). I'll get back to you in a couple weeks with some more discussion points. Thanks for the response.

Any progress? Would like to include localization support but have been slammed recently with a job, of all things.

Sadly, I'm in the same boat. It's still on my list to look at, but I can't say when I'll be able to get a chance.

I just added the first crack at localization support in v1.5, now available on nuget. FYI.
