CultureInfoExtensions.GetCultureInfo Method (String, Boolean)

CultureInfoExtensionsGetCultureInfo Method (String, Boolean)

Similar to GetCultureInfo(String), but covers culture names (<language-code>-<region-code>) which are used by SDLX and Trados Translator's Workbench, but have a different code in .Net.

Use this method to transparently map language codes (current and legacy ones) to cultures, for example when processing TTX, ITD, or TMX.
