Create an XML Schema Enumeration of Supported .NET CultureInfo with Powershell

Here’s a Powershell script to generate the enumeration elements of an XML Schema simpleType restriction.  The first command loads the .NET Assembly you’ll need, sysglobl.dll.

PS> [System.Reflection.Assembly]::Load("sysglobl, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken= b03f5f7f11d50a3a, processorArchitecture=MSIL")
PS> [System.Globalization.CultureInfo]::GetCultures([System.Globalization.CultureTypes]::FrameworkCultures)
| ? {$_.Name.Trim().Length -eq 5} | % { "<xs:enumeration value=`"$_`"/>"} | Out-File cultures.txt

See my earlier post on locale identifiers for more background.
