PDF Page Base Extract Text Sets Culture In Current Thread To Invariant

Hi,

We have discovered an issue when running our complete test suite that if an ExtractText method is called it causes the current Culture in the current thread to be set to invariant. This then causes any DateTime actions i.e. Parse to fail as if we pass in a UK date of "22/06/2022" an exception is thrown as the invariant culture date format is "MM/dd/yyyy".

However if we use the overloaded ExtractText(out TextLines) it does not change the culture. Please could you assist.

After further investigation it seems to be setting the culture to in variant when disposing.

Hi Darryl, 
 
 
Thank you for contacting Syncfusion support. 
 
 
We have checked by extracting the text from the PDF document. We were unable to reproduce the reported issue. We have shared the sample in which we tried to replicate this issue. 
 
 
 
 
Could you kindly try the sample and let us know whether you are facing the same issue? If yes, kindly share the PDF document in which you are facing this issue. It will be helpful for us to investigate further and provide the details at the earliest.

Dhivya.

Hi Dhivya,

Thanks for the quick repose, I have taken a look at the sample and I'm not using the same libraries or methods that you are. I though the best option would be to create an example to show the error. Please find the example attached and let me know if you need any more information.

Additional Update

After further investigation I can see that the CultureInfo.DefaultThreadCurrentCulture is being set to invariant when the ExtractText method is called. This then sets causes issues for when running tests as they will use the same thread. 

Thanks,

Darryl
