Set culture for a DLL (class library) referenced from web application

[Ya Ya]

I am developing a DLL (class library) for a web application of mine.

In the web.config of the web application I have set: culture="en-GB"
uiCulture="en" in order that the date format will be dd/mm/yyyy.

I also changed the regional settings to that date format.

When I am using the Now() function in the DLL I get the date format in
mm/dd/yyyy instead. Why the date format in the DLL is different? Shouldn't
it take the culture settings from the web application he is referenced from?

How can I control the date format of the DLL (class library)?


Thanks for your time

Ya Ya,

See this article on settig culture.

I don't believe you are setting the culture on the thread and the
application assumes the culture of the server.
