Use “real” CultureInfo.CurrentCulture in WPF Binding, not CultureInfo from IetfLanguageTag

Question

In my case:

I have a TextBlock Binding to a property of type DateTime. I want it to be displayed as the Regional settings of the User says.

Answer 1

Put the following line of code, before any UI is initialized. This worked for me.

FrameworkElement.LanguageProperty.OverrideMetadata(typeof(FrameworkElement),
    new FrameworkPropertyMetadata(XmlLanguage.GetLanguage(CultureInfo.CurrentCulture.IetfLanguageTag)));

(And remove all explicit culture parameters)
