Iso639Part1Language Struct

Definition

Namespace: DataStandardizer.Language

ISO 639 Part 1 alpha-2 language codes (for example en). ISO 639 does not assign numeric values to its language codes, so this type is not a C# enum: it is a readonly struct implementing DataStandardizer.Core.IStringEnum, with each language code exposed as a public static readonly member whose underlying value is the string code from the standard. It behaves much like an enum — you access codes as static members and compare them with == — but it wraps a string.

public readonly struct Iso639Part1Language : DataStandardizer.Core.IStringEnum, IEquatable<Iso639Part1Language>

Remarks

IStringEnum derives from IComparable on all targets and additionally from IConvertible on the netstandard2.0, net8.0, and net10.0 targets, but not on netstandard1.0. The constructor is private; obtain a value from a static code member or the explicit string conversion. Per-member metadata is read through the Iso639Extensions accessors. See Understanding the ISO 639 parts.

Methods

Implicit implementation

Method	Returns	Notes
`CompareTo(object obj)`	`int`	Throws `ArgumentNullException`/`ArgumentException` for a null or mismatched argument.
`Equals(Iso639Part1Language other)`	`bool`
`Equals(object obj)`	`bool`	Override.
`GetHashCode()`	`int`	Override.
`GetTypeCode()`	`TypeCode`	(netstandard2.0+/.NET) `IConvertible` member.
`ToString()`	`string`	Override. Returns the member name, or the underlying code.
`ToString(IFormatProvider provider)`	`string`	(netstandard2.0+/.NET) Marked `[Obsolete]`; the provider is unused — use `ToString()`.

Explicit implementation

The struct implements IConvertible explicitly; each member delegates to the underlying string and is callable only through an IConvertible reference. (netstandard2.0+/.NET)

Method	Returns	Notes
`ToBoolean(IFormatProvider provider)`	`bool`
`ToByte(IFormatProvider provider)`	`byte`
`ToChar(IFormatProvider provider)`	`char`
`ToDateTime(IFormatProvider provider)`	`DateTime`
`ToDecimal(IFormatProvider provider)`	`decimal`
`ToDouble(IFormatProvider provider)`	`double`
`ToInt16(IFormatProvider provider)`	`short`
`ToInt32(IFormatProvider provider)`	`int`
`ToInt64(IFormatProvider provider)`	`long`
`ToSByte(IFormatProvider provider)`	`sbyte`
`ToSingle(IFormatProvider provider)`	`float`
`ToType(Type conversionType, IFormatProvider provider)`	`object`
`ToUInt16(IFormatProvider provider)`	`ushort`
`ToUInt32(IFormatProvider provider)`	`uint`
`ToUInt64(IFormatProvider provider)`	`ulong`

Operators

Operator	Signature	Notes
Explicit	`explicit operator Iso639Part1Language(string)`	Wraps a code string. Throws `ArgumentNullException` for `null`.
Implicit	`implicit operator string(Iso639Part1Language)`	Unwraps to the underlying code string.
Equality	`operator ==`, `!=` `(Iso639Part1Language, Iso639Part1Language)`

Applies to

Targets netstandard1.0, netstandard2.0, net8.0, and net10.0. IConvertible (and its members, including GetTypeCode() and ToString(IFormatProvider)) is available on the netstandard2.0, net8.0, and net10.0 builds, but not on netstandard1.0.
