NSString *currentLanguageString = [[IDLocalizationManager sharedManager] currentLanguage];
or, much better
NSString *currentLanguageString = IDLocalizationCurrentLanguage;NSString *defaultLanguageString = [[IDLocalizationManager sharedManager] defaultLanguage];
or, much better
NSString *defaultLanguageString = IDLocalizationDefaultLanguage;[[IDLocalizationManager sharedManager] setCurrentLanguage:(@"en")];
or, much better
IDLocalizationSetLanguage(@"en");
[[IDLocalizationManager sharedManager] resetCurrentLanguageToDefault];
or, much better
IDLocalizationResetLanguageToDefault;
NSString *displayNameString = [[IDLocalizationManager sharedManager] displayNameForLanguage:(@"en")];
or, much better
NSString *displayNameString = IDLocalizationDisplayNameForLanguage(@"en");
NSArray *availableLanguages = [[IDLocalizationManager sharedManager] availableLanguagesWithoutBase:true]
