Locale-Sensitive Windows C++ Function
LPSTR CharPrevExA(WORD CodePage, LPCSTR lpStart, LPCSTR lpCurrentChar, DWORD dwFlags);
Internationalization (I18n) Function Overview
The CharPrevExA function returns a pointer to the previous character in the
string pointed to by lpCurrentChar , using the code page
specified by CodePage .
dwFlags is reserved and must be 0 .
If lpCurrentChar equals the lpStart argument, then
CharPrevExA returns the first character in the string.
CodePage can be a specific identifier
or one of the following predefined values:
CP_ACP - Use system default ANSI code page.
CP_MACCP - Use the system default Macintosh code page.
CP_OEMCP - Use system default OEM code page.
CP_THREAD_ACP - Use application's current thread code page.
There are no wide or generic versions of this function.
I18n Issues
Pass in a specific multibyte code page, or set CodePage to CP_THREAD_ACP to use the ANSI code page of the
application's current thread. See Windows C++ Locale
for information on setting up the locale and code page for an internationalized Windows application.
There are no wide or generic versions of this function. CharPrevExA should only be called in an MBCS
application. For a Unicode UTF-16 application, call the Generic function CharPrev ,
or CharPrevW explicitly.
