Windows C++ Locale Function
GEOID GetUserGeoID(GEOCLASS GeoClass);
Internationalization (I18n) Function Overview
The GetUserGeoID function retrieves information about the
geographical location of the user. GeoClass
specifies the geographical location class to return and must be set to GEOCLASS_NATION.
If SetUserGeoID has been called before, this
function returns the GeoID of the user.
If there is no GeoID for the user and GeoClass has been set,
GetUserGeoID returns GEOID_NOT_AVAILABLE.
Call EnumSystemGeoID
to enumerate the GeoIDs available on the system and
GetGeoInfo to get information about a specific
geographic location.
I18n Issues
In an internationalized application that uses geographical locations, ensure that the geographical
location is variable rather than hardcoded, and that the language
used in the display of the information corresponds to the application's language rather than the
system's default language.
Note that GetUserGeoID is supported only on Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, and
Windows Me.
Recommended Replacements*
There are no variations of the function call.
*If you're already using the recommended function, see I18n Issues for other reasons why Globalyzer is detecting the function.
