RadDatePicker: how can we change the culture on-the-fly?

[Jane]

From the example code, we see that we can change the culture in Xaml

 

 

 

<telerikInput:RadDatePicker x:Name="datePicker" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="10" Width="200" Culture="en-US" />
we can change Culture as any language in the drop down list such as chinese:

 

 

 

<telerikInput:RadDatePicker x:Name="datePicker" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="10" Width="200" Culture="Chinese (People's Republic of China)" />

 

 

 

We need to change the culture on-the-fly. Can we do it on the Xaml?
If not, we have to do it through code-behind.
How do we get the list of culture list as above string?
thx!

It looks like we can use the Culture Name.
for an example, for German: datePicker.Culture = new CultureInfo("de-DE"); in the code behind.
