Internationalization (I18n) Method Overview

The CreateInstance method creates a new instance of the specified type defined in the specified assembly. Parameters specify a binder, binding flags, constructor arguments, culture-specific information used to interpret arguments, activation attributes, and authorization to create the type. Classes AppDomain and Activator support this method.

See Microsoft's MSDN online documentation for more information.

I18n Issues

The method CreateInstance should be passed a CultureInfo argument so that the interpretation of any number or date arguments will be performed according to the passed in Culture.
