Asp.net Mvc 2.0 RC Setting Thread CurrentCulture/Ui

I been pulling my hair out all day.

i can't seem to set the current thread cultureui or culture to anything other than English. In the controller i have

  protected override void Initialize(System.Web.Routing.RequestContext requestContext)
        {
            base.Initialize(requestContext);

            CultureInfo cultureInfo = CultureInfo.GetCultureInfo("fr-FR");

            Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = cultureInfo;
            Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = cultureInfo;                    
        }

in my view i have

<%= Thread.CurrentThread.C开发者_运维问答urrentUICulture.EnglishName%>  

the thread seems to be fine but as soon as the view renders some how its back to english!!

I know its a RC, so is it broken or am I missing something ??

cheers

Set the language later. I use a filter that runs before the action (OnActionExecuting).

My first shot at it would be to set it in the action.

Got it working.Bizarrely i just created a new project and started again and it all works fine. All the different ways people have suggested worked in the new project. I have yet to find out what the difference is between the 2 projects.

Cheers
