Beta Tester Wanted (new Windows app for ReadyNAS)
Hi, all I recently created a small Windows app for ReadyNAS series of NAS, which will let user to start, monitor and shutdown a ReadyNAS system from task tray. It emulates RAIDar Protocol ...
Thanks for testing, Mackila.
You're right. I had collected replies from ReadyNAS of all language settings and found temperature expressions of all languages are in format like "40.0C". Therefore, they can be converted simply using specific regional format such as "en-US" or invariant culture at this moment. However, I am not very sure but in some countries it should be described as "40,0C", right? So, in case Netgear might correct the expression for such countries in future, it is not safe to always assume they are "en-US" format. This is my thought.
I confirmed it will throw this exception on regional formats including "fr-FR". I changed and replaced it again. The new version seems working fine on my Windows 7 whose regional format, location and display language are all set as "fr-FR" or "de-DE".

You do not need to know what will user current UI culture be.
