is there a way to get all available languages on the iphone just like in the settings app?
can't find a method in NSLocales Class Reference.
thanks!
A:
[NSLocale preferredLanguages] will get you a list of codes like this, which you can translate yourself:
en,
fr,
de,
ja,
nl,
it,
es,

You need to translate "en" into "English" and so on.

Well, there is [NSLocale availableLocaleIdentifiers]…
EDIT: what do you mean by “I need the local identifiers”? Do you mean the NSLocale identifiers or the localized language names? I fear the latter is not possible.

i need exactly the same thing as in the settings "app". i want to store the local identifier to a string and work with it at some other time with `initWithLocaleIdentifier`. i will then run several things, using Numberformatter, dateformatter and so on

I’m pretty sure [NSLocale availableLocaleIdentifiers] yields exactly the list you need but I’m also pretty sure it’s not possible to construct human-readable names from the locale identifiers.
