Refreshing interface immediatly after PrimaryLanguageOverride

Question

I want to write an article about localization, but I have a question.

After I set a primary language in WinJs app

Windows.Globalization.ApplicationLanguages.primaryLanguageOverride = "ru";

I can refresh app with

WinJS.Resources.processAll();

But in C# app it is needed to exit app an start it again (as I remember by guidelines that was needed to inform user about that he needs to reenter app)

So, my question: is there any was to refresh app in C# without exiting?

Hi Programmer Sommer,

Looks like there is no equal C# API that can do like WinJS.Resouce.processAll() on WinJS.

However here is a quick solution: http://timheuer.com/blog/archive/2013/03/26/howto-refresh-languages-winrt-xaml-windows-store.aspx by listen to the language change event.

Thank you, Jamles!

I have seen this post (Tim is well known person). And even have tried. But I was not sure that there are no other way in 8.1.

But if you also think that there are no ability to refresh UI, then I can be sure.
