change default language at runtime ? - djsuperfive - 03-21-2015
Hi,
is it possible to change the default language at runtime and automatically reload all language files that are declared in the autoload property ?
thanks.

I don't think you can automatically reload the language files, so you have to set the language before the language files are loaded.
Otherwise, you could loop through $this->lang->is_loaded to determine which files have been loaded (and reload them with the new language idiom).

Hi,
thanks for the answer. Indeed using $this->lang->is_loaded works fine for me.
thank you !

Why is this property not documented ?

Because you're not supposed to use it. Don't.

It looks like I'll have to pay a little more attention to the documentation. I wouldn't have mentioned it if it was set as a protected property or marked as deprecated in the code.
